‘Ginny & Georgia' Season 3: Brianne Howey Discusses Her Character's Mental Health

Brianne Howey in 'Ginny & Georgia' on Netflix. The Netflix hit Ginny & Georgia is back and better than ever. The ten-episode third season is a rollercoaster ride, and the finale is phenomenal, with two cliffhangers in the last few seconds that will leave fans salivating at the bit for season four. When the series first premiered in 2021, it appeared to be a light-hearted, fun, sexy binge-watch. Though it is incredibly entertaining, it's so much more than a soapy drama. Despite the show's lighthearted, heartwarming, and humorous moments, it's also brave in how it tackles mental health, and it does so in a way no other television show has in that it is not heavy-handed or preachy in its approach. Creator/executive producer Sarah Lampert has never shied away from the angst of being a human being, putting her characters through struggles such as depression, addiction, eating disorders, personality disorders, self-harm, and this season, teen pregnancy, to name a few. The story centers around Brianne Howey's Georgia Miller, a mother who will do anything, moral or not, for her children. As the chaos creator of the story, those around her are left to deal with the fallout of her actions following season two's cliffhanger, which left a shocked Georgia taken away in handcuffs at her wedding to the Mayor when she was arrested for murdering her friend's husband. Brianne Howey says Georgia Miller has narcissistic tendencies. By the time we get to season three, which premiered on June 5, Georgia is on house arrest, bound by an ankle bracelet that keeps her caged like a wild animal as she tries to survive the media sensation surrounding her murder trial. Her world spins out of control when it comes out that she may have also killed a few of her husbands, and she's nicknamed the 'Mayoress Murderess.' When asked what she thinks Georgia's mental health issues might be, Howey replied carefully. 'The show works very closely with Mental Health America to make sure that we aren't glorifying any of the wrong things and that we're handling all of these subjects with the utmost respect and care. I do think Georgia has narcissistic qualities. That being said, I think Georgia is the type of narcissist who is capable of change, and that's what has been really compelling this season to see for Georgia. Every character goes on a mental health journey. But yes, especially Ginny and Georgia.' Lampert concurred, adding, 'The show's theme is that everyone is fighting a battle you can't see.' Of the new season, she explained that for Georgia to change her ways, the stakes would need to be raised. 'We purposefully exploded our entire world and revealed our main character. I loved it!' exclaimed Lampert. As the media frenzy around her murder trial explodes, Georgia is forced to face herself. Antonia Gentry talks about her character's journey in season three of 'Ginny & Georgia' on Netflix. This season, Georgia's daughter Ginny (Antonia Gentry) must confront just how similar she is to her mom when her brother Austin (Diesel La Torraca) is sent to live with his abusive father, and she goes to live with her dad. Ginny discovers the lengths she will go to free her mom and get her family back together, and she realizes she's a lot like her mother. Gentry paused briefly when asked to describe the relationship between Ginny and Georgia. 'It's almost symbiotic…because they're so apart this season, we see them have to come into their own in different ways that they haven't been able to before. Ginny can't rely on Georgia as much as she'd like to. Georgia can't rely on Ginny or do anything at all because she's on house arrest. We see Ginny forced to make decisions for herself and to start creating situations and opportunities for herself instead of reacting to those things.' Gentry added how much she enjoyed the acting challenges this season. 'It was wonderful to play her, especially towards the end, as someone who is kind of turning into her mom in a sense where she's like, 'Look, I'm not getting the results that I want. My mom is going to jail. My brother is with his abusive father. I don't want any of this. I'm going to make it happen.' And she does, and it's scary for Georgia to witness, but it's fascinating because we see Ginny morphing into the young woman that she's going to become. And you can't come back from that ledge. It's very interesting to see Ginny walk this tightrope of chaos.' Brianne Howey and Antonia Gentry in 'Ginny & Georgia' on Netflix. This season, Howey pointed out, Ginny and Georgia were forced to question whether or not they should be together. 'Are they better together? Or, are they better apart? Is it them against the world? This season poses so many questions.' When asked if she thinks her character is a good mom, Howey gave a Georgia-like grin and said, 'I think so.' Georgia, she confirmed, will do anything for her children. 'This season gives her a run for her money. She's seeing the idea the public has about her, and it's starting to hit home like, 'My God, have I made my children's life harder than it needs to be? I think she had to get pushed to these extremes to have that realization. There's going to be a change, but as we see, it's very small and slow, but it's happening.' Lampert agreed with Howey's comments about Georgia having narcissistic qualities. 'She definitely has a personality disorder that can get better with treatment.' She added that she and her team have worked closely with Mental Health America since season one to craft the characters' mental health journeys. For seasons one and two, Lampert worked alongside showrunner and executive producer Debra J. Fisher, and for seasons three and four, she teamed up with Sarah Glinski. Antonia Gentry and Diesel La Torraca in 'Ginny & Georgia' on Netflix. As to why the fans continue to support Georgia despite her penchant for murder, Glinski thinks it's because, at her core, Georgia is good. 'Georgia believes she's doing everything for her children. All of her actions come out of that place of love. The fact that she's doing things out of love makes us root for her.' This is the beauty of good writing. Lampert, Glinski, and their team of writers have taken a character with a personality disorder that's very difficult to deal with and made her likable. Lampert credited those at Mental Health America with helping to write various scenes and morph the mental health journeys of the characters throughout the seasons. When she asked the doctors she was working with what would have to happen for Ginny and Georgia to have a healthy relationship, she was advised that Georgia would have to be broken down. 'She'd have to face something big. She'd have to feel threatened with losing her children to come to an understanding that she has to change and that her actions have consequences. And Ginny would have to set some boundaries," revealed Lampert. "Ultimately, their relationship being healthy isn't on Ginny. She's the child. It's on Georgia. This season, we broke Georgia's soul with the hope to rebuild.' To the fans anxiously waiting to see what happens next, the writers are back at work. 'The theme of season four is origins and cycles,' Lampert divulged, adding that though the original plan was to end Ginny & Georgia after four seasons, they've realized there's more to tell. 'We're not done yet.'

How Meghan Markle's Perspective on Royal Family Rift Is Different From Prince Harry's

Prince Harry has been open about the continuing rift between himself and other members of the British royal family, including his father, King Charles, and older brother, Prince William. Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, moved to California in 2020 and issues over visiting the U.K. have arisen in relation to security concerns. This week, a source tells People that the couple has different perspectives on how to move forward. 'They're aware of everything going on in England, but they're being left out of the details—there's clearly no trust,' said the insider, adding that Meghan is 'focused on the future,' and 'is very business about it.' She remains firmly supportive of her husband, however, despite his own tendency to dwell on the widening gulf. But the Duchess of Sussex 'wishes her husband could feel less burdened by the past and more present in the life they've built together.' Charles has been receiving regular cancer treatments and is allegedly struggling with the idea of reconciliation. 'It's been difficult for him to even get proper updates about his dad,' the source explained. Harry has been requesting for years to have automatic police protection applied to his entire family so they can visit the country again, a privilege applied to working members of the royal family. They lost their appeal on the matter in April of this year. Charles and William's hesitation towards reconciliation is supposedly about 'trust' and the belief that heir interactions with the Sussexes may not remain private. The couple has shared intimate details of their lives in their popular Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan and in Harry's memoir Spare, as well as a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey. In a 2023 interview with The Daily Telegraph, Harry admitted he actually removed anecdotes from Spare after considering how it might divide him from his father and brother. 'The first draft was different,' he said. 'It was 800 pages, and now it's down to 400 pages. It could have been two books, put it that way. And the hard bit was taking things out.' And there were some things he didn't 'want the world to know.' 'I don't think they would ever forgive me,' Harry added. 'This is not about trying to collapse the monarchy, this is about trying to save them from themselves.'

What Is IPTV Service? Everything You Need to Know in 2025

In today's rapidly evolving virtual world, traditional TV viewing is transforming. One of the key technologies using this variation is IPTV or Internet Protocol Television. If you've been curious about what IPTV is, how it works, and why it's gaining so much traction in 2025, you've come to the right place. This comprehensive manual will break down everything you need to know about Iptv service, from its basics to its future trends. IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television. Unlike conventional cable or satellite TV, which delivers content via radio waves or satellites, IPTV provides television programming through Internet Protocol (IP) networks. Positioned, IPTV utilizes your broadband internet connection to stream live TV channels, on-demand films, and various multimedia content directly to your device. At its core, IPTV works by converting video content into data packets and sending these packets through an IP network, typically your home internet. Here's a simplified breakdown: Content Acquisition: TV indicates that movies, TV shows, and other content are accumulated from numerous assets, such as studios, broadcasters, or live events. Encoding and Compression: This content material is compressed into virtual formats (which include MPEG or H.264) to lessen size without dropping quality. Content Delivery: The virtual streams are dispatched through IP networks using protocols such as HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) or Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP). User Access: You receive this movement for your device through an IPTV app, a smart TV, or an IPTV set-top box. Playback: The video player for your device decodes the move and performs it efficiently. The key distinction is that IPTV allows you to watch live TV or video-on-demand via internet streaming instead of traditional broadcast methods. In 2025, IPTV services come in various forms tailored to different needs: Live IPTV: Streaming of live TV channels in real-time, similar to traditional broadcast but delivered over the internet. Video on Demand (VOD): Access to movies and shows whenever you want, like Netflix or Hulu. Time-Shifted TV: Allows viewers to pause, rewind, or watch live TV after it has aired. Catch-Up TV: Allows users to watch shows that aired earlier, typically within a specified time window. Many IPTV providers offer a combination of these options, providing users with a comprehensive entertainment package. IPTV has skyrocketed in popularity recently for several reasons: With IPTV, viewers aren't restricted by broadcast schedules. You can watch what you want, when you want, on any device—be it a smartphone, tablet, smart TV, or computer. IPTV services often provide access to thousands of live channels worldwide, as well as an extensive library of on-demand content. This variety surpasses what traditional cable packages offer, especially for niche or international channels. Since IPTV operates over existing internet infrastructure, it often costs less than traditional cable or satellite subscriptions. Many providers offer affordable plans or even free content funded by ads or freemium models. Thanks to faster broadband speeds and improved compression technologies, IPTV streams in high definition (HD), 4K, or even 8K resolution, delivering crystal-clear pictures and sound. One of IPTV's most significant advantages is device versatility. You can enjoy IPTV on: Smart TVs: Many smart TVs come with built-in IPTV apps or support third-party apps. Streaming Devices: Devices like Amazon Fire Stick, Roku, Apple TV, or Google Chromecast can run IPTV apps. Computers and Laptops: Using dedicated software or web browsers. Smartphones and Tablets: Most IPTV providers offer mobile apps compatible with iOS and Android devices. Set-Top Boxes: Some users prefer IPTV set-top boxes, which connect to your TV and provide a dedicated IPTV interface. While IPTV technology itself is legal and widely used by major broadcasters and telecommunications companies, the legal status of the content being streamed depends on the specific content being streamed. Licensed IPTV services that distribute authorized content are entirely legitimate. However, some IPTV services offer unauthorized access to copyrighted material at a lower cost or for free, which is illegal and could lead to penalties. It's crucial to use reputable IPTV providers to avoid legal troubles and ensure a safe, high-quality viewing experience. Choosing an IPTV service can be overwhelming, given the numerous options available. Here are key factors to consider: Content Selection: Check if the service offers your favorite channels, movies, and shows. Streaming Quality: Look for providers that support HD or 4K streaming with minimal buffering. Device Compatibility: Ensure the service is compatible with your preferred devices. User Interface: A clean and easy-to-navigate interface enhances your viewing experience. Customer Support: Reliable customer service can help resolve any issues quickly. Subscription Plans: Compare pricing models and any available free trial offers before committing. Reviews and Reputation: Read user reviews and expert opinions to ensure credibility. As we move further into 2025, IPTV technology is poised to become even more sophisticated. Here are some trends to watch: Artificial intelligence will play a bigger role in tailoring content recommendations based on your viewing habits, making it easier to discover new favorites. IPTV platforms will incorporate more interactive features, such as real-time polls, shopping through TV, and social media integration, turning passive viewers into active participants. Cloud-based DVR options allow users to record and store shows online, making them accessible anytime from any device. With 5G becoming widespread, IPTV streaming will be faster and more reliable, even on mobile devices. Edge computing will reduce latency, thereby improving the quality of live streaming. IPTV providers will expand international content offerings, catering to global audiences with diverse tastes and languages. The answer is a resounding yes. IPTV is revolutionizing how we consume television by combining the power of the internet with multimedia entertainment. Its flexibility, affordability, and superior quality make it an attractive alternative to traditional TV services. TIME BUSINESS NEWS
