Shrinking Season 3 Filming Start Window Revealed (& It's Very Soon)
Shrinking season 3 has officially set its filming start window, and production is beginning much sooner than expected. The hit Apple TV+ dramedy, created by Bill Lawrence, Jason Segel, and Brett Goldstein, follows therapist Jimmy Laird (Segel) as he navigates his unconventional approach to counseling while coping with the death of his wife. Also starring Harrison Ford, Jessica Williams, and a stellar ensemble cast, the series quickly became one of Apple TV+’s most beloved comedies. Amid a strong second season, the streamer wasted no time renewing Shrinking for season 3, and now, the cameras are gearing up to roll.
In a video shared on Instagram, Christa Miller confirmed that filming for Shrinking season 3 starts next week "in the heart of Pasadena." Miller, who plays Liz in the series, enthusiastically announced the update while teasing her return to set alongside the rest of the cast. Watch the video in full below:
What Shrinking Season 3’s Early Filming Start Means
It's A Great Sign For Apple TV+'s Latest Dramatic Comedy
The accelerated filming timeline for Shrinking season 3 suggests that Apple TV+ is keen on keeping the show's momentum strong. Unlike other series that suffer from long gaps between seasons, such as the workplace-thriller Severance, the Jason Segel-led dramedy seems to be following a tight schedule, which could lead to an earlier-than-expected premiere. If production moves smoothly, Shrinking could see new episodes by late 2025.
With its third season filming so soon, it’s clear the next chapter will dive right back into the emotional fallout of Shrinking season 2’s finale. Jimmy’s dramatic last-minute rescue of Louis at the train station was a breakthrough for both characters, but their journeys aren’t over. Now, Jimmy must balance his ongoing grief with the responsibility of helping Louis move forward—without either of them backsliding into destructive patterns. Meanwhile, Paul’s worsening Parkinson’s raises major questions about his future, as the once fiercely independent therapist may be forced to accept that he can no longer handle everything alone.

More Heart, More Humor, More Shrinking

Shrinking has consistently delivered a story full of humor and tears, making it one of Apple TV+’s most rewarding series. Its thoughtful exploration of grief, human connection, and personal growth is particularly resonant, and the show’s fast-tracked return is a great sign that Apple knows it has something special. If Lawrence, Segel, and Goldstein continue to bring sharp wit to a sincere emotional depth, Shrinking could solidify itself as one of TV’s best dramedies.
