Heartwarming Comedy Series Trying Returns July 22; Retta Is Back with More on HGTV

Apple TV+ released the trailer for the third season of the heartwarming comedy series Trying, which is set to premiere globally Friday, July 22, 2022 on Apple TV+. The eight-episode third season of Trying will make its debut with the first two episodes, followed by new episodes weekly every Friday through September 2, 2022. After a dramatic end to season two, the third season picks up with Nikki (BAFTA nominee Esther Smith) and Jason (SAG Award nominee Rafe Spall) waking up as new parents to two children they are still getting to know. Now they just have to keep hold of them, which proves to be trickier than they initially thought. Thrown straight into the parental deep end, Nikki and Jason's relationships with each other and with their nearest and dearest are tested as they desperately try to navigate the ups and downs of parenting - while hanging onto their kids, and their sanity. In addition to Smith and Spall, the season three cast includes Eden Togwell (as Princess), Mickey McAnulty (as Tyler), Oliver Chris (as Freddy), Sian Brooke (as Karen), Darren Boyd (as Scott) and Robyn Cara (as Jen).

Summer is the time to vacation and relax in beautiful places, but Ugliest House in America: Ugly in Paradise, premiering Sunday, July 24, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV and also available to stream on discovery+, will prove things can get ugly, even in paradise. Hosted by Retta, a home design enthusiast, as well as a comedian and actress known for her roles in Parks and Recreation and Good Girls, the series attracted nearly 11 million viewers to its freshman run. During the new five-episode season, Retta will take a road trip to five stunning destinations to visit 15 unsightly homes nominated by their owners and share her hilarious reviews of the astonishingly bad designs, cringe-worthy layouts and severely outdated styles. Based on its ugly appearance, poor functionality and hideous design choices, one house will be crowned the "ugliest house in America" by HGTV, and the network will award its owners a showstopping $150,000 renovation completed by Alison Victoria, one of its top stars, during a special one-hour finale episode. In each episode, Retta will tour three homes where she will enthusiastically react to a plethora of bad design ranging from linoleum-covered walls and carpeted bathrooms to epic odors and pest infestation. Throughout the season, Retta will see the best of the worst in every region of the U.S. and help a lucky homeowner transform their hideous home into a showstopper.
