The Instagram Parents are lying.

Breeders, the comedy series starring Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard, 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 “Luke” (Alex Eastwood) punching his dad. “Paul” (Martin Freeman) has moved out and is staying at “Leah’s” (Stella Gonet) house. He should be lonely, but the simpler life has its appeal. Eventually, though, amends with Luke must be made. Meanwhile, “Ally” (Daisy Haggard) has her own problems – with work, her early menopause and 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…

The 10-episode season is produced by Avalon and FX Productions for FX Networks and Sky Originals. Academy Award®-nominee and double Emmy® Award-winner Simon Blackwell is showrunner. Breeders is created by Blackwell, double Emmy Award and Directors Guild of America Award winner Chris Addison and Emmy and BAFTA®-winning Martin Freeman, who also stars alongside Daisy Haggard. Executive producers are Blackwell, Addison, Freeman, Richard Allen-Turner, Rob Aslett, David Martin, Jon Thoday, Toby Welch and Michael Wiggs.
