OTT had already quietly renewed the series for Season 3 before making it official, showing that the platform had confidence in the show's continuation. However, there is still no confirmation about a fourth season, especially since Season 2 didn't receive the same level of response as the first season.
Season 3 will feature some new cast members, including Bradley Whitford, who is known for his role in The West Wing. He will reunite with Allison Janney, another veteran from the same series. In addition to them, Nathan Wiley and Mercer Boffey are expected to appear, likely taking on the roles of Agent Crocker and the Deputy Chief of Staff, respectively.
Behind the scenes, the writing team includes several familiar names from previous seasons. Debora Cahn, the series creator, has written the first and final episodes (301 and 308). Other writers contributing include Anna Hagen, Eli Attie, Jessica Brickman, Peter Noah, Peter Ackerman, and Julianna Dudley Meagher. Alex Graves will return as a director for the new season.
While fans are happy to know that Season 3 is coming soon, they are still waiting to hear whether Netflix will give the green light for more seasons in the future. For now, excitement is building for the release of eight new episodes filled with drama, politics, and diplomacy when 'The Diplomat' returns in 2025.

Troll who got under the skin of Virat Kohli in 2011 ‘finally' suspended on X: ‘Thought Indian Courts were slow'
After nearly 14 years of trolling and taunting Virat Kohli online, the X account of a user he once publicly warned has finally been suspended — and Kohli fans are having a field day. It all began back in 2011, during the Twitter days, when Kohli called out the user, who went by the handle @Ishaan3, for allegedly using abusive language against him. 'Your account has been reported and will be deactivated soon. dont tweet if u wana use foul language(sic),' Kohli posted at the time. @ishaan3 your account has been reported and will be deactivated soon. dont tweet if u wana use foul language. — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) December 6, 2011 But @Ishaan3 didn't just stop there. Over the years, it has made it a personal mission to poke fun at the Indian cricketer, regularly bragging that despite Kohli's warning, the account was still active. 'Still I am on Twitter bro… 5… paanch saal ho gaye,' he gloated in 2016. Four years later, he followed up with, '10 saal hogaye Kohli bhai.' Now, in a twist that's being celebrated across X, @Ishaan3 has finally been suspended. Screenshots of the suspended profile started surfacing midweek, though it's unclear exactly when the platform pulled the plug. A post shared by The Whatup (@thewhatup) Also Read | 'I laughed for 10 minutes': D Gukesh reacts to Magnus Carlsen's viral table slam memes and picks his favourite The reaction from Kohli's fans? Pure entertainment. One wrote, 'Twitter account suspended after 11 years >>>> IPL win after 18 years,' while another joked, 'The moral of the story is 'Virat bhai will take time but the work will be done'.' Someone else quipped, 'Probably they were waiting for RCB to win,' while another chimed in, 'And I thought Indian Courts were slow.' The long-running drama may be over, but the memes have just begun.

Census data to be ready within nine months? Govt bets on tech to speed up 2027 exercise
The upcoming Census 2027 could deliver its final population figures by the end of the same year, a significant improvement over previous exercises, thanks to a digital-first approach that will use mobile apps for data collection and intelligent systems for real-time processing. Sources in the government said the time taken to publish detailed population data — including gender-wise breakups at national, state, district and taluk levels — may be compressed to just nine months from the date of enumeration. In the 2011 Census, this process had stretched over nearly two years, according to a ToI report. The government has set March 1, 2027, as the reference date for the next Census. Originally scheduled for 2020, the decadal count was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Daughter thought she had saved 'cute bunnies.' The vet pales when he realizes what they really are Cleverst Mobile apps in 16 languages to power enumeration The 2027 Census will be conducted in two parts — a house-listing phase in 2026, followed by population enumeration in February 2027. For the first time, enumerators will be equipped with a mobile application to capture data digitally, replacing the bulky paper forms of the past. Available in 16 languages, including Hindi, English and 14 regional options, the app is designed to be simple to use for both officials and the public. Citizens will also have the option of self-enumeration , the sources said. Live Events The app-based format will offer dropdown menus, auto-fetching of house records, and the ability to edit entries on the spot — all of which are expected to speed up data collection and reduce manual errors. Data processing to be near-instantaneous With most of the responses pre-coded and digitised, the need for manual compilation of summaries or abstracts will be eliminated. The mobile application will feed directly into back-end systems using Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) tools, which will help process even semi-structured information swiftly. For questions requiring descriptive or non-numeric responses, officials have prepared a code directory to guide enumerators in selecting standardised entries, further cutting down processing time. To support the massive digital operation, the Office of the Registrar General of India has also built a Census Management and Monitoring System (CMMS) portal, which will help track and coordinate progress across all stages. If the process unfolds as planned, this will be the fastest turnaround yet for a Census in India — and the most technologically advanced.
