Euphoria Fans Upset Over Season 3's Episode Count: ‘Could've Been An Email'
Last Updated: Euphoria originally premiered in June 2019, followed by two special episodes in December 2020, and Season 2 came out in January 2022. Zendaya's teen drama Euphoria is set to be back with season 3. But fans aren't too thrilled about the upcoming season of the hit HBO drama. Why? There is an update stating that Euphoria season 3 would have eight episodes, just like its previous seasons. While season 2 was released within just two years after season 1 premiered, Euphoria fans have been waiting for nearly four years for new episodes. And when reports suggested that season 3 would have only eight episodes, fans were highly upset. Taking to social media, they vented out their frustration on getting just eight episodes after such a long wait, which is not yet over. On an Instagram post, one fan said, 'This season could've been an email, tbh." Another commented, '4 years???….the plot better be good…like really freaking good…" A different fan of the show joked, 'Me graduating high school and getting my bachelor's degree in the meantime." Another upset fan wrote, 'It's sad to say, but I'm honestly over it LMAOO. Like they should have just made a little follow-up special to tie it up and called it a day at this point." Someone else penned, 'These episodes better be 3 hours each if it took 4 years to make." View this post on Instagram A post shared by MEMEZAR • MEMES & MEME-CULTURE (@memezar) Euphoria originally premiered in June 2019, followed by two special episodes in December 2020. Season 2 came out in January 2022, which was still manageable by the fans. Now, it looks like fans have to wait until 2026, which is more than four years, for season 3, as there still has been no confirmation on the release date. There are definite reasons for the delay in season 3 of Euphoria, mainly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the rising fame of the star cast, and the sudden demise of actor Angus Cloud. Moreover, Euphoria's showrunner Sam Levinson was busy with another HBO project, The Idol, featuring The Weeknd, Lily Rose-Depp and BLACKPINK's Jennie. Still, fans aren't convinced with such excuses. Back in November of last year, HBO's CEO Casey Bloys reassured fans that Euphoria's next chapter was on track and confirmed the start date. The shoot for season 3 reportedly began in January this year. The upcoming season will feature the usual faces, including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Elordi, Hunter Schafer, Storm Reid, Alexa Demie and Eric Dane. First Published:

'This season could've been an email': Euphoria season 3's 8-episode count after over 4-year wait has fans fuming
Euphoria season 3 has an *update* and as yawn-inducing as you'd anticipate it to be. Being part of the Euphoria fandom feels the same as being ghosted by the man of your dreams who you are convinced is your soulmate. But like every good situationship worth its salt, the restlessness eventually fizzles out and all you're left with is rage (and eventually disinterest). And this seems to be the exact trajectory Euphoria season 3 seems to be treading. Recent reports assert that the the third season, set to come in after over a 4-year wait, will only have 8 episodes. Safe to say, fans aren't mincing words. A post shared by MEMEZAR • MEMES & MEME-CULTURE (@memezar) Comments capturing the general sentiment read, "this season couldve been an email tbh", "These episodes better be 3 hours each if it took 4 years to make", "8 episodes ??? In 4 yrs ???", "It's sad to say but I'm honestly over it LMAOO. Like they should have just made a little follow up special to tie it up and called it a day at this point" and "Yea jus keep it. You had all this time and u came up wit only 8 episodes?" to quote a few. While it's understandable the COVID-19 pandemic coupled with the skyrocketing careers of majority of the cast members (not to mention Sam Levinson's dumpster fire of a detour with Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd-starrer The Idol) created, what appears to be never-ending scheduling conflicts — fans aren't having any of the excuses anymore. Euphoria debuted with its first season back in June 2019, with two pacifying specials following in December of the following year. Season 2 arrived 2 whole years later, in January of 2022, making for, honestly, not THAT bad a track record. But between 2022 and 2025, a 4-year waiting, further extended owing to cast member Angus Cloud's death, will see the third season, hopefully premiere next year, IF that. Zendaya, who plays Rue Bennett, already wildly popular, cemented her spot as an all-rounder performer. Sydney Sweeney, who plays Cassie Howard, launched her Hollywood career landing an Emmy-nomination and kickstarting a very lucrative production gig on the side. Jacob Elordi, who plays Nate Jacobs, doubled down on his sensational status, landing some pretty key note projects, both mainstream and indie. And that's great for them. But for the fandom still stuck on the chaotic, whimsical cliff hanger for season 2 — 8 episodes just doesn't seem to be cutting it. So will Euphoria season 3 manage to capitalise on the legacy of the show — or is this a lost cause when it comes to famring audience interest?
