The Hulu series, “Shrill,” which is set and filmed in Portland, will end with the show’s upcoming Season 3, according to a story in the Hollywood Reporter. The comedy, which stars Aidy Bryant of “Saturday Night Live,” is inspired by Seattle-based writer Lindy West’s memoir, “Shrill: Notes From a Loud Woman.”
The Hollywood Reporter story includes a statement from Bryant, which reads: “‘Shrill’ has been one of the most creatively satisfying experiences of my life, a true labor of love for me and everyone who worked so hard on it.”
The statement goes on to say: “We are incredibly proud of this upcoming third and final season and are so grateful to the audience who connected with this story. I am deeply honored to have worked so closely with the writers, cast and crew to make ‘Shrill’ while continuing my work at ‘SNL,’ it is a time I will never forget. I have endless love for our crew in Portland and I am excited to get back to NY and rejoin my other work family at ‘SNL’ in the meantime.”
Filming is completed on Season 3 of “Shrill,” and the series is expected to return to Hulu sometime this spring. In its first two seasons, the series has followed Annie (Bryant), a writer who’s working to find her voice, while also figuring out her relationships with her family, friends and coworkers.
