Season Three of Love on the Spectrum (US) premieres on Netflix in early April.
The Emmy-winning series again profiles people on the autism spectrum navigating dating and relationships.
This now puts the series produced by Northern Pictures at one season ahead of the Australian original.
“We’re incredibly proud to bring viewers another season of this heartwarming series which contributes to a richer understanding of ourselves and the world around us,” said Karina Holden, Co-Creator and Executive Producer of Love on the Spectrum and Head of Factual at Northern Pictures.”Season Three features the return of couples whose stories have captivated audiences across the globe, together with new faces whose stories remind us that the search for connection is universal.”
Cian O’Clery, Co-Creator, Executive Producer and Director added: “Season Three allows us to continue following the relationships of our beloved participants, showing how they evolve, deepen, and face challenges. Love on the Spectrum is a show that brings joy, hope and understanding to the world and we look forward to sharing their touching stories with global audiences once again.”
Fan favourites featured in Season Three include popular couple Abbey (26) and David (30), who first connected in Season One and are now approaching four years together in July. The Season also includes charismatic medieval enthusiast James (36), talented animator and entrepreneur Dani (29), energetic Tanner (25), thoughtful Connor (25), and creative Adan (27). New to the series is Madison (27), who was inspired to join the show after seeing Abbey and David’s love story, and Pari (22), an artistic newcomer who enjoys railfanning, singing, drawing and animation.
Neurodiversity expert and author Jennifer Cook returns to guide the daters, tailoring her approach based on each individual’s experience level and needs.
The series has garnered widespread acclaim, securing five Primetime Emmy Awards (two in 2024 – Outstanding Casting For A Reality Program and Outstanding Directing For A Reality Program and three in 2022 – Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program, Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program and Outstanding Picture Editing for an Unstructured Reality Program). Critics and viewers alike have praised the show for its empathetic lens and authentic portrayal of individuals on the autism spectrum as they navigate the complexities of dating and relationships.
Wednesday April 2 on Netflix.

This is such a great show, has the warmth of the Australia series, a cast who you want to see fall in love. Connor was certainly my favourite last season, and I do wonder if Dani will ever find her someone which has the same love of animation and career path has herself.
