‘A Man on the Inside’ Renewed for Season 3 At Netflix: See the Announcement!

Another investigation is on the way for everyone’s favorite dutiful detective, as A Man on the Inside has been renewed for Season 3 at Netflix.

Three months after Season 2 of the Ted Danson-led comedy premiered, the streaming service took to social media to announce that Danson will bring back his septuagenarian sleuth character for another case.

“Third crime’s the charm. A MAN ON THE INSIDE has been renewed for a third season!” Netflix is a Joke posted to their Instagram page.

The series — which comes from the mind of The Good Place and Parks and Recreation creator Mike Schur — follows Charles Nieuwyndyk (Danson), who picks up a part-time job as a P.I. after losing his wife and retiring from his job as an engineering professor.

Season 1 followed Charles investigating missing jewelry at a retirement community in San Francisco, while the second season saw Charles at the fictional Wheeler College in Sacramento, where the school’s president was on the receiving end of a blackmail campaign.

After the release of the second season, DECIDER spoke with series star Lilah Richcreek Estrada, who said she is among the most excited cast members to possibly go back to set, especially since Season 2 leaves off on a potential blooming romance between her character and Didi (Stephanie Beatriz), the manager of the Pacific View Retirement Community from Season 1.

“When I found out that they were going to get together, I was like, ‘Oh my God,’” the actress said. “I hadn’t picked up on that myself in Season 1. But I think, you know, the writing spoke for itself… I’m excited to see where it goes if we get more seasons.”

DECIDER also spoke with Schur and Danson ahead of Season 2’s release on Netflix and asked the producers to confirm if the show will continue to feature everyone’s favorite guest star, Kristen Bell, who has made quick cameos in both seasons. Rest assured, it’s happening.

“We decided after she dropped by the set [in Season 1] and we had her do a little cameo where she just stood up with her back to camera and walked off, we decided that somehow or another, as long as this show exists, she will make an appearance in every season,” Schur said.

As for how she’ll appear in Season 3, who will lead the third season’s cast — Season 2 featured Mary Steenburgen, Max Greenfield, and more — and what the case in Season 3 will be, stay tuned. We’re just glad that we have more of this silly little comedy to look forward to.

The first two seasons of A Man on the Inside are now streaming on Netflix.
