Will there be a fourth season of Dead To Me?
Despite the show’s success, season 3 will mark the end of Jen and Judy’s journey.
In July 2020, Liz Feldman, the show’s creator, opened up to Deadline about the decision to end it, revealing that she never intended the show to be on-air for a long time.
“I always knew from the inception of the show that I didn’t want it to be a long long-running show,” Feldman said.
“Then there was a certain point when we were in production on Season 2 when the end of the show came to me, pretty profoundly, so I realized, ‘I know the story that I have to tell’ and Season 3 feels like the right time to do that. It’s just something that came to me organically, and I tend to try to follow the gut feelings I have.”
Outside of Dead To Me, Feldman has also written for CBS’ 2 Broke Girls, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and Blue Collar TV.
