Season 3 of Hacks is the latest television show to be halted owing to the writer’s strike. It’s the series’s 2nd production pause since shooting started in November 2022. The 1st occurred as a result of Jean Smart’s heart surgery in February. This work stoppage is expected to go much longer—at least until writers reach an agreement with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.

Season 2 of Hacks concluded with legendary comic Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) and her young writer Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), who were begrudgingly (on both ends!) sent to work together in Season 1 to improve both of their careers, travelling across the nation in a tour bus while Deborah attempts to polish new material. So, what does the future hold for HBO Max’s award-winning comedy? Here’s everything you need to know about Hacks season 3.

Hacks Season 3 Potential Release Date

As of May 2023, there is no announcement of the release date for Hacks season 3. However, the 2023 Writers Strike has made predicting when Hacks will return difficult.
