‘Search Party’ Season 3 Trailer: New Network, New Season, New Problems

The cult hit Search Party is returning for a third season at an all-new home. The first two seasons of the series aired on TBS, but for season 3, Search Party is packing up its bags and heading on over to HBO Max. The series follows a group of hip millennials (those darn kids!) as they get mixed up in various mysteries. So it’s kind of like Scooby-Doo, without the talking dog and people dressed as ghosts. Okay, I guess it’s not like Scooby-Doo at all.

I have to confess I’m not caught up on Search Party. I watched – and enjoyed – season 1, but never got around to season 2. But now that the series is back for a third season, I think it’s time for me to binge. The first season was a fascinating blend of comedy and darkness, with the narrative going to some extremely shocking places.

The show, described as “a comedy thriller about a group of privileged, self-absorbed twenty-somethings whose search for a missing friend leads them down a dark and shocking path of no return,” hails from producers and co-creators co-creators Sarah-Violet Bliss, Charles Rogers, and Michael Showalter, as well as executive producers Lilly Burns and Tony Hernandez of Jax Media.

The upcoming third season “finds the gang swept up in the trial of the century after Dory (Alia Shawkat) and Drew (John Reynolds) are charged for the semi-accidental murder of a private investigator. As Elliott (John Early) and Portia (Meredith Hagner) grapple with whether or not to testify as witnesses, the friends are pitted against each other and thrust into the national spotlight. Dory’s sanity begins to fracture, and it becomes increasingly clear that the group may not have brunch together again for quite some time.”

While the first two seasons originally aired on TBS, they’re now both available on HBO Max ahead of the season 3 premiere, which is set for Thursday, June 25.
