Upon his return, their flirtation resumed.
Sam is a true Kansan on the surface but beneath it all struggles to fit the hometown mold. As she grapples with loss and acceptance, singing is Sam’s saving grace and leads her on a journey to discover herself and a community of outsiders that don’t fit in but don’t give up, showing that finding your people, and finding your voice, is possible. Anywhere. Somewhere.
In the hilarious final scene of Season 2, Sam drunkenly went to his house for a booty call.
So far, his scenes with Sam have been electric.
With the show going into its final season, this could be an endgame romance.
Meanwhile,Tricia found her dream careerafter she was tasked with planning Fred Rococos wedding.
Seeing Tricia thrive makes sense.
One of the big questions forSomebody SomewhereSeason 3is ifSam will find a similarly fulfilling career.
So much of the show is about how adrift Sam is for a woman her age.
Where Is Sam’s Dad on ‘Somebody Somewhere’?
After giving a wonderful performance in Season 1, the actorMike Hagertysadly passed awayin between seasons.
In Season 2, the writers wrote out the character by having him traveling.
In the season premiere, Tricia said that he was on a sailing trip.
However, this seems unlikely based on how theyve handled the character so far.
Somebody Somewherehas always been more about quiet momentsthan big plot turns.
While there are certainly things a final season could wrap up, ultimately this is a hangout show.
Somebody Somewhereis available to stream in the U.S. on Max.
