Can you believe the rollercoaster that was School Spirits Season 2? The Paramount+ supernatural teen drama, led by the phenomenal Peyton List as Maddie Nears, has fans clamoring for more after its jaw-dropping finale. With Season 3 officially greenlit, the buzz is real! From potential plot to cast members, here's the full scoop on School Spirits Season 3—everything we know so far. What's Next for Maddie? Season 3 Potential Plot
The Season 2 finale of School Spirits left us with more questions than answers, and Season 3 is poised to dive into some seriously spooky territory. Maddie finally kicked Janet out of her body, but the cost was steep: her best friend Simon is now trapped in Mr. Martin's scar, a creepy supernatural limbo. Meanwhile, Xavier's sudden ghost-seeing powers (hello, Maddie's dad!) and Wally's ambiguous crossover moment have fans on edge. What's next for Split River High's ghostly gang?
Here's what we expect Season 3 to tackle:
Rescuing Simon: Maddie's not one to leave her bestie behind. Season 3 will likely center on her mission to free Simon from the afterlife, possibly exploring their unique supernatural bond. Could this quest unleash new dangers?
School Secrets Unraveled: Those eerie red lights in the finale? They hint that the ghosts' scar-diving shenanigans shook up the school's paranormal energy. Will the 'energy fence' keeping ghosts trapped lift, letting them roam free or revealing a bigger mystery in town?
Wally's Big Choice: Did Wally cross over for good, or is he sticking around? His heartwarming arc and chemistry with Maddie make his potential exit a tearjerker, but we're crossing our fingers for Milo Manheim's return.
With showrunners Nate and Megan Trinrud promising more twists, expect Season 3 to blend emotional stakes with mind-bending supernatural lore. Who's Back? School Spirits Season 3 Expected Cast
No official cast list for Season 3 yet, but the core crew is almost certain to return, given their roles in the unfolding drama. Here's who we expect to see haunting Split River High again: Peyton List as Maddie Nears, the determined teen unraveling her afterlife puzzle.

She Let Her Followers In on Her Dating Life. They Witnessed Her Love Story in Real Time (Exclusive)
Maddie shared her dating ups and downs exclusively with her Instagram Close Friends, unknowingly chronicling a real-time love story A casual DM from a younger man named Mikey turned into something unexpected: respect, chemistry and a deep connection Just months later, Maddie's followers watched her go from 'I can't do this anymore' to 'I need him biblically' — and ultimately to saying yes to his proposalIn a now-viral Instagram video, Maddie scrolls through a year of Close Friends stories, narrating the real-time love story she didn't know she was capturing. 'You post your dating stories on Close Friends,' she says in the clip, 'and they watched you fall in love.' When she first invited a few followers into her inner circle, it was just to vent about the chaos of dating in her 30s. 'I posted on my story like, 'If you want to be on my Close Friends to hear more dating stuff, let me know,' and 300 girls said yes,' Maddie tells PEOPLE. The rest of the story unfolded in voice notes, videos, screenshots and tearful recaps shared only with those women. Her digital diary became a safe space not just for storytelling, but for solidarity. 'Honestly, last year was the worst dating experience I've ever had in my life,' she says. 'All 300 of those girls can attest to it.' By early 2024, she was cautiously stepping back into dating after a long break. Burnt out from bad dates and disillusioned with the process, she told herself she'd date just to have fun — no pressure, no expectations. 'I pretty much was like, I'm never gonna find love,' she says. 'But at least I can have fun… at least they're getting some entertainment out of it.' Then, one morning, she posted a quick video from the gym. A guy named Mikey, who followed her online, messaged her, casually noting they went to the same gym, though they'd never seen each other in person. 'I thought he was a trainer trying to sell me a package,' she laughs. 'Because also, I do not get hit on [through] Instagram.' But then came the message that made her pause. 'If it's not obvious, I think you're really pretty,' he wrote. A few days later, they went on their first date. 'I was literally in the car right before, almost in tears,' she remembers. 'I was just like, I cannot go on like these first dates anymore.' But that date turned out to be different. 'Even though my expectations were super low going in, when he walked in, I felt like my body took a screenshot,' Maddie laughs. While everything seemed to be going well, Maddie was hesitant because Mikey looked significantly younger than her. 'When I asked how old he was, he said 26,' she says. 'I was like, do you know how old I am? I'm 35.' Back in the Close Friends group, she debriefed immediately. She told them 26 might be too young, even if he was kind, smart and incredibly attractive. 'I was like, I don't know if I could do that,' she says. 'And they were just like, just give it a chance.' So she did. And with each date, her resistance softened. 'He's responsible, he doesn't go out, he honestly acts older than I do,' she says. 'We always joke that he's 41.' Soon after, Maddie posted the now-viral phrase that marked a turning point in her feelings. 'I need him biblically,' she wrote, adding, 'It's from a Britney Broski sound. It was more hedonistic, if anything, not like I needed to read the Bible with him.' Around that same time, Mikey introduced her to his parents, just two weeks in. 'That's crazy,' she says. 'But I was already like, this is it.' It wasn't just the relationship that felt serious, but how she was showing up in it. As a mom to her daughter Gabbie, dating meant navigating a whole different set of priorities. 'I used to be scared to bring up my daughter,' she says. 'But with this relationship, I was just like, you know what, Gabbie is a big part of my life.' She made it clear from the beginning that Gabbie wasn't going to be hidden or minimized. Mikey didn't flinch. 'When I told him I had a kid, I thought he was gonna be like, I'm not interested,' Maddie says. 'But it didn't faze him at all.' Before they even met, Mikey spoke about Gabbie with gentleness and respect. 'When they finally met, they got along really well, and he just played with her all day,' she says. It was that moment, seeing how he treated her daughter, that cemented everything. 'Gabby liking you is more important than my family liking you all combined,' she says. 'If Gabby doesn't like you, this is not gonna work.' And he did. From day one, he put his best foot forward. Meanwhile, Maddie's followers were catching feelings right along with her. 'Every time I would meet a man, the group chat would be like, 'That's your husband,' ' she says. This time, she asked them to hold off. 'We've said that a few times and we have been wrong every time,' she says. 'So from now on, don't call him my husband.' Mikey was the only man she didn't give a nickname to. 'I don't think he needs a nickname,' she says. 'He just went from the guy from Instagram to my boyfriend to my fiancé.' The proposal came quicker than expected. They had talked about a summer engagement, but Mikey couldn't wait. 'I think we went to Olive Garden and he was like, I can't wait until July,' Maddie says. 'If I have that ring, I'm going to have to propose to you immediately.' She knew the proposal was coming, but didn't want to be caught off guard. 'I told him I didn't want to be surprised with no nails done,' she laughs. So he planned everything. He made sure her nails were done, she received a massage, and even a special dress she had picked out months before. 'We were able to almost plan it together,' she says. 'He executed it, but I got to tell him everything I wanted.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Looking back now, Maddie feels grateful she documented it all — every high, every heartbreak, every glimmer of hope. 'I go back to my archives and see where I was a year ago today,' she says. 'Some of the videos, I'd be crying, like, this is the worst.' But she also sees growth and grace. 'You could see almost like the light returning to my eyes from when we met,' she says. Her journey through dating in 2024 was painful, but it shaped her vision for love. 'Had I not had that, I don't think I would have ever found Mikey,' Maddie says. 'Even if I did, I don't think I would have appreciated him.' She stopped dating for a husband and started dating for herself. 'I just wanted to meet people, go to my favorite restaurants, and be social,' she says. That freedom helped her figure out what she truly wanted, which was kindness, generosity, and softness. 'And not just with me, but with everyone,' she adds, saying she found all of that in Mikey. 'My expectations were so low,' she says. 'And now I genuinely can't imagine my life without him.'

Is ‘Sweet Magnolias' returning for season 5? Everything we know so far
Sweet Magnolias has captured the hearts of Netflix viewers with its heartwarming tales of friendship, romance, and small-town life in Serenity, South Carolina. After the emotional rollercoaster of Season 4, fans are eager to know: Is Sweet Magnolias Season 5 happening? Here's everything we know so far about the future of the beloved series. Sweet Magnolias Season 5: Renewal Status Good news for fans! Netflix officially renewed Sweet Magnolias for Season 5 on April 23, 2025, just over two months after the Season 4 premiere on February 6, 2025. This quicker-than-usual renewal (compared to the three-month gap between Seasons 3 and 4) signals Netflix's confidence in the show's enduring popularity, despite a slight dip in Season 4 viewership. The upcoming season will consist of 10 episodes, staying consistent with previous seasons. Production is set to begin in June 2025, with a likely release in 2026. When Will Sweet Magnolias Season 5 Premiere? While Netflix hasn't announced an exact premiere date, production is slated to start in June 2025, primarily in Atlanta, Georgia, where previous seasons were filmed. Given the typical 6–9 month post-production timeline, Sweet Magnolias Season 5 is expected to premiere in early to mid-2026, possibly around February or spring, aligning with past release patterns (2020, 2022, 2023, and 2025). It's unclear if filming will include New York City to reflect Maddie's move or rely on sets in Atlanta. What Will Sweet Magnolias Season 5 Be About? While Netflix hasn't released an official plot synopsis, the Season 4 finale left several storylines ripe for exploration. The show, based on Sherryl Woods' 11-book series, follows lifelong friends Maddie Townsend (JoAnna Garcia Swisher), Dana Sue Sullivan (Brooke Elliott), and Helen Decatur (Heather Headley) as they navigate love, career, and family. Season 4 ended with significant developments that set the stage for Season 5: Maddie's Move to New York City: Maddie's acceptance of a publishing job in NYC raises questions about how her move will affect her relationships with her new husband, Cal (Justin Bruening), her children, and her lifelong friends. Showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson emphasized the theme of women prioritizing personal ambitions, noting, 'We feel so many women are confronted with, 'Am I allowed to put myself first this one time?'' Season 5 will likely explore whether the Magnolias' friendship can withstand this physical distance. Helen and Erik's Wedding: Helen and Erik (Dion Johnstone) got engaged in Season 4, and fans are buzzing about what Heather Headley called 'the wedding of all weddings for Serenity.' Expect Season 5 to dive into wedding planning, with Helen's love for fashion promising a spectacular event. Ty and Annie's Relationship: The younger generation faces its own drama. Ty (Carson Rowland) and Annie (Anneliese Judge) confessed their feelings, but their paths diverged with Annie heading to her dream photography school in California and Ty embarking on a band tour. Will they attempt a long-distance relationship, or will their romance falter?
