‘The Newsroom’ season 3 premiere date revealed; great news for Jeff Daniels, Olivia Munn fans!
Finally, the news is official when it comes to “The Newsroom” season 3, and it is very much what we personally expected going into this week: The show will be back on Sunday, November 9. The only slight change is that it will air at 9:00 p.m. Eastern time, an hour earlier than the first two seasons.
While it may not be particularly revealing, the logline for this upcoming season goes as follows:
“Created by showrunner Aaron Sorkin, the drama series follows the members of a cable news team on their quixotic mission to do the news well in the face of a fickle audience, corporate mandates and tangled personal relationships.”
All of the important cast from the first two seasons is expected to return, including Jeff Daniels, Olivia Munn, Emily Mortimer, Dev Patel, and many more. So far, the only significant story spoilers that are out there can be found in the teaser video that was released a little earlier this month. Every little thing suggests that this could be the conclusion to the series that it deserves, but we will just have to wait and see if that truly comes to fruition.
In addition to the return of “The Newsroom,” it was also confirmed today that “The Comeback” and “Getting On” would air following the show. The reason why this is particular significant is that it means these two shows could actually have a halfway decent lead-in for a change. Hooray to that!
We’ll have to see where this story ultimately goes, but for the time being, there is a definite reason to be excited. We’re mostly just happy that HBO gave the show a final season at all, given all the uncertainty around it for a while.
