'AP Bio' was originally an NBC series that got canceled on the network after two seasons and fans fought to bring it back.

Here is what we know of the upcoming Season 3 release.

Release date

‘AP Bio’ Season 3 will premiere with all eight episodes on September 3, 2020.

Plot

The comedy series chronicles the teaching life of disgraced Harvard philosophy student Jack Griffin (Glenn Howerton) in Toledo, Ohio. The official Season 3 synopsis is yet to be released, but the trailer gives a great glimpse into the hilarity of the season.

Creator

Michael Patrick O'Brien is listed as the creator of the show. 

Trailer

The trailer is short but as usual matches the energy of its first two seasons with its nonchalant and '30 Rock' like comedy. Howertown and Oswalt take center stage in the trailer, as it does in the series itself and their lack of knowledge on how to properly run a school or teach advanced classes make for a hilarious binge-watching session.
