Chad Michael Murray, Tom Jackson, Andrea Menard, and Scott Patterson​​​​​. It follows Maggie Sullivan (Kohan), a neurosurgeon who returns home to rural Nova Scotia after some legal trouble and reconnects with her estranged father.

Deadline confirms that Sullivan's Crossing season 3 will premiere on Wednesday, May 7 on The CW at 8 PM. The news about the Roma Roth-created series comes as The CW has unveiled its spring schedule, which includes the final season of the comedy Children Ruin Everything and a new Sherlock adaptation. Although the network has changed significantly under the leadership of Nexstar, Sullivan's Crossing has proved to be a reliable hit.

What Sullivan's Crossing Season 3 Means For The Show

The Familiar Faces Will All Be Back

It's been confirmed that the episodes will see the core trio reprising their roles. Kohan, Murray, and Scott Patterson will be back as Maggie, Cal Jones, and Harry “Sully” Sullivan, respectively. The series was boosted by the trio's familiarity with Kohan, who is known for When Hope Calls. Murray and Patterson are known for One Tree Hill and Gilmore Girls, respectively. It puts them in the position of The WB and CW royalty returning to the network that was once known for romance and teen dramas.

The running theme of the adaptation, in addition to questions about Maggie's love life and familial repair, is the town itself and whether it will be able to keep a tight grip on the identity that Maggie is coming back to. It's not the only popular Robyn Carr adaptation, with the future of Virgin River season 7 also finding massive popularity on Netflix and being one of the streamer's rare originals to get renewed so consistently.

Our Take On The Return Of Sullivan's Crossing

The Crown Jewel Of The New CW

Along with the Sherlock adaptation, which puts a different spin on the famed character by bringing a daughter into the mix, Sullivan's Crossing stands out as a relative success story for The CW. It is a co-production, which comes with its own economic benefits. But it also leans into a popular genre, with renowned actors, and tells a story from a celebrated author. There's a good chance that the drama could continue for a few more seasons, depending on how the third installment goes, and that would mean that Maggie is just at the start of her journey back home.
