The Way Home Returns for Season 3; Matthew Broderick and Son to Guest Star on Elsbeth
Hallmark's fan-favorite, critically acclaimed hit series The Way Home returns for its much-anticipated Season 3 on Thursday, January 2, 2025, debuting on Hallmark+, the company's new subscription streaming service and membership rewards program, where it will be available exclusively. Series stars Andie MacDowell (Maid, Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cove), Chyler Leigh (Supergirl, Grey's Anatomy), Evan Williams (Blonde, Versailles) and Sadie Laflamme-Snow (The Apprentice) all reprise their roles.

The season will make its Hallmark Channel premiere in Fall 2025.
Season three picks up where season two left off – with Kat (Leigh) and her brother Jacob (Spencer Macpherson, School Spirits), who went missing more than two decades ago at the age of eight and is now an adult, poised to walk into the Landry home to an unsuspecting Del (MacDowell). Viewers will be introduced to a groovy new era when the pond transports Kat and Alice to 1974 – the year Del and Colton (Brown) first met as teens and their epic love story began.Alice is befriended by a young, spritely Evelyn Goodwin (Cecchetto) but their budding friendship complicates Alice’s relationship with Del, who wants her memories of Colton to remain the way they are. Meanwhile, Kat attempts to close the door on the 1800s after making startling discoveries. In the present day she and Elliot (Williams) navigate a new chapter in their relationship, while he finds himself faced with his own complicated past. Since its debut in 2023, The Way Home's compelling, multi-generational family drama with a fascinating time travel twist has built a loyal following among fans and has won over critics.The series’ complex characters and cleverly crafted writing keeps viewers eagerly awaiting each new episode and creating their own theories about the family mysteries woven through the episodes.
Tony Award-winning actor Matthew Broderick and his son James Wilkie Broderick will guest star in a new episode of CBS' hit series Elsbeth in 2025.
