FX‘s acclaimed comedy series, Breeders, is gearing up for its Season 3 which is all set to return this May on FX itself. The upcoming narrative picks up from season 2 finale which saw an altercation go down between Paul, played by Martin Freeman, and his teenage son Luke, played by Alex Eastwood.
In the wake of the incidents of season 2, season 3 will be gearing up for a lot of drama, especially with Paul now living away. The official synopsis of the upcoming season states,
"Breeders continues its bitter-sweet look at the struggles of modern parenthood. Season 3 starts days after Season 2 ended, as the Worsley family reels from teenaged Luke (Alex Eastwood) punching his dad, Paul (Martin Freeman). Paul’s moved out and is staying at his mother-in-law Leah’s (Stella Gonet) house. "
Further elaborating on what lies ahead, it reads:
"He should be lonely but actually the simpler life has its appeal. Eventually, though, amends with Luke must be made. Meanwhile Ally (Daisy Haggard) has her own problems - with work, with her early menopause and with her increasingly strained relationship with her newly adolescent daughter, Ava (Eve Prenelle). Gallows humor and large glasses of wine only go so far in quelling the angst..."
