Erica exec producer Aaron Martin tells us that in the coming 13 episodes, we’ll travel still deeper into the time-skipping-therapist network to meet Dr. Naadiah’s own doctor, played by Graham Greene (an Academy Award nominee, no less, for Dancing With Wolves, and late of Twilight: New Moon). Kai will be back (phew), and we’ll meet yet another patient, who happens to be Irish. This maybe, sort-of hints at my theory that season 3 will find her more involved in the time-travel world, possibly as a therapist-in-training herself, after Dr. Tom presented her with a choice of magical, unexplained doors through which to walk in the season 2 finale. But the beauty of this show is you never know what they’ll throw at us next.
As for boys: A new character gets a recurring role — Lenin, a guy Erica’s sister Sam works with, will be played by Brandon Jay McLaren (the dreamy Devon Sylver from The N’s highly underrated The Best Years). Ryan — that guy Erica dated for a bit in season 1 — will pop up again, as will Ethan’s ex, Claire. When it comes to Ethan himself, well, the “jury is out,” Martin says. Hmmm …
What do you think, PopWatchers? Any theories as to what season 3 will entail?
I love this show…so glad it is coming back for another season!
A co-worker’s brother is working on the set. They are in the early stages of production. And he said the theme of the season is “group therapy”. Also, please note that Being Erica airs on SoapNet, but it is a Canadian show. We have very few good ones. Give us our props!
That means Season 3 will start in the fall on CBC. Yeah!! I hope to see Brent again, I know the actor.
You should tell people that it’s a CBC production – that’s right folks: Canadian!
Our tax dollars, hard at work for your enjoyment
Actually, because the CBC has been able to sell the show to foreign markets it actually makes its money back. Which means a big thank you to Americans for helping pay for our healthcare …
Yes! Season 3! I’m so happy that Kai will be back – Loved the song “Alien”. If you haven’t watched this amazing show; you have to catch up on hulu!
I’m very excited about the news of Kai being back. His good bye scene and then when he doesn’t recognize Erica, makes me tear up.
Glad to hear Kai will be back! Sebastian’s awesome.
I am glad i am not the only one that cried. i am so glad he will be back hopefully he will know Erica this time!!
I love the show too, and I didn’t just tear up, I actually cried! Bought the single, cried listening to it and ALMOST cried when I realized that was the season finale… so glad it is coming back!
Hooray! I can’t wait for new eps of Being Erica. I just wish they would do more episodes at one time.
I love this show and can’t wait for the new season! Sooo happy!

WHOO HOO – I am elated about this. I’m beyond thrilled that Kai will return, and agree that Erica will likely become a therapist in training. This is my favorite show!!!!!
