WATCH: The trailer for Dead to Me is here

Sarah McKenna Barry

It lands on Netflix very soon.

Good news for fans of the hugely popular series Dead to Me, as the trailer for the third and final series has dropped.

The show follows two women, Jen (Christina Applegate) and Judy (Linda Cardellini) who initially bond through their shared grief, despite darker secrets lurking beneath the surface.

When we last left them off, a drunken Ben (James Marsden) had smashed into Judy and Jen’s car, injuring them both. Instead of sticking around and calling for help, Ben pulled a runner, leaving our girls vulnerable.

In the trailer, we see Jen and Judy recover together in hospital before reflecting on how they’ve come out on the other end of everything they’ve been through together. However, it looks like their peace is short-lived as a detective continues to sniff out their secrets, and the connection between Steve’s death and the hit-and-run.

After giving fans a snippet of what to expect from this season, the trailer ends with Jen reminding Judy that they are “badass bitches”.

The new season lands on Netflix on 17 November.

Recently, Applegate spoke about how her Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis impacted filming.

The actress revealed that she was diagnosed with MS last year, and as a result had to take a five-month break from work. In an interview with the New York Times, she said that she felt an “obligation” to continue filming, even though the crew made it clear that there was no pressure on her to return to the show.

She said: “The powers that be were like, ‘Let’s just stop. We don’t need to finish it.'”

One of the options presented to her was for production to put together some episodes with previously recorded footage.

“I said, ‘No. We’re going to do it, but we’re going to do it on my terms.'”
