by 
Who is ready for another go round in Purgatory? That’s right Earpers, Syfy has announced that it has renewed Wynonna Earp for Season 3! So break out the whiskey and doughnuts because Purgatory will still be the place to be come 2018 when Season 3 premieres.
Syfy and IDW Entertainment announced the renewal of the breakout supernatural series on Saturday at the show’s panel at San Diego Comic-Con. In attendance at the panel were cast members Melanie Scrofano, Shamier Anderson, Tim Rozon, Dominique Provost-Chalkley, Katherine Barrell, Varun Saranga, Tamara Duarte, along with showrunner and creator Emily Andras and comic book creator Beau Smith. Space Channel in Canada also announced they have renewed the show for Season 3 as well.
IDW Entertainment President David Ozer surprised Earpers at the panel with the Season 3 renewal announcement, before treating them to an exclusive trailer for the remainder of the season. During the panel the cast also revealed behind-the-scenes antics and more details about the biggest hidden secret of the season – writing in Melanie Scrofano’s real-life pregnancy, which made Wynonna Earp the first pregnant superhero.
“Fans have been passionately embracing Wynonna Earp since its debut,” said Ozer. “SYFY recognized that passion and when coupled with superior writing, acting, directing and production values, saw that Wynonna Earp was more than just a distinctly unique television series. We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with SYFY and look forward to another fun season of incredible entertainment with the cast and crew of Wynonna Earp.”
“We are so excited to have this strong female-led, witty action series return for another season and deliver something special to our passionate fans around the world,” added Andras.
Produced in Calgary by SEVEN24 Films and globally distributed by IDW Entertainment, Wynonna Earp follows legendary lawman Wyatt Earp’s descendant, Wynonna (Scrofano) who inherits his mystical gun, Peacemaker. With it, Wynonna and her posse of dysfunctional allies must fight against supernatural beings and other paranormal occurrences in a raucous, whisky-soaked struggle to break her family’s demonic curse. Andras (Lost Girl, Killjoys) developed the wildly imaginative series for television and serves as Executive Producer and Showrunner. SEVEN24’s Jordy Randall and Tom Cox serve as Executive Producers along with IDW CEO & Publisher Ted Adams and Ozer, as well as Todd Berger and Rick Jacobs.

Can’t believe this show got another season when shows with superior ratings, better actors and far better writing miss out. This show completely jumped the shark this season and does not deserve a s3 just because it’s good at manipulating its lesbian fanbase. Frankly disgusted a group of straight women are considered heroes for the disposable wayhaught storyline. Syfy just lost my support
Boo. Hope it’s a short season and then this flop of a show ends. Hope they all feel good about how they use their gay fanbase to get them more seasons and then treat the storyline as little more than fodder. Also can the straight actors from this show stop acting like they’re heroes for playing gay? It’s embarrassing
Bless the first two commenters for continuing to push for more and even better LBGTQ representation in television. It’s true there’s still a long way still to go. That said, I’m really grateful for this awesome little show. I think they do great… their hearts are true, and I can really feel that. Growing up with TV in the 1970s and 80s, I would have given anything to see myself represented. It seems like it’s been so, so long to wait. Every milestone, every step, however large or small, is important. This show had me hooked from the moment Haught walked into Shorty’s and asked out the town sweetheart in ep 1×02… and it’s storylines and characters have only become more interesting, flawed and, well, human, since. The characters, actors, showrunners, fans have all been perfectly warm and lovely. I’m happy to take a moment to celebrate the fact that this amazing team will get to tell more of its story.
The first 2 commenters can suck it! #WayHaught forever!!!
You
Ignore them, they’re obviously trolls that we’re waiting for the announcement so they’d be first to throw up their vitriol crap. Nobody told them to watch it but they’re damn sure quick to comment. They’re miserable & love company.
*were waiting.
Darn spellcheck
Came for the gay, stayed for the cray. This deliciously insane show has a LOT of layers. Its effing brilliant and brings me joy. I feel sad for those who can’t see the substance below the campy surface. Earper for life!
I’m so glad such an amazing cast and show got a renew!!! Ignore all the hate and love Wynonna Earp.
Yes! Such awesome news to hear! This wonderful show and cast deserves it so much!
I’m so happy!!!! Wonderful show, wonderful cast, wonderful television all around. I don’t understand how people can hate on this amazing little show that could! If it’s not your cup of tea I understand, but just commenting to spread hate is beyond pathetic. Don’t like it? don’t read the article and just don’t watch the show. Simple!
Bitter people with nothing better to do I guess.
Here’s to the Earpers for getting S3!!!!
YEEEES! LOVE love love this show! They have the loveliest cast and crew and deserve all the love and support. It feels great when the good guys win!
I’m so happy that this show gets another season. This show has the best fans, cast and crew. There is so much love and support shown by everybody from the Top to the bottom. Everybody is just “Top Shelf.” I can’t wait to see what Emily has in store for us for the rest of this season and next season.
I’m too happy! I’m more than happy, I’m beyond words.
This show is so important for SO many people and is a true treasure.
Every person involved in the show/comicbook, everything, is amazing.
Let’s go SEASON 3
YES!!!
I’ll admit I’d like to eviscerate those that expound their ignorance and hate but that’s not what this show or fandom is about. Instead, I’d like to applaud Ms. Barrell and Ms. Provost-Chalkley on their support of the LGBTQ community off screen and their dedication to providing an authentic and entertaining positive representation for ALL fans. I love the intricacies Emily Andras and the writers weave into the storylines and can’t wait to see how the show evolves both this season and SEASON 3! Thanks to all who work to make this show happen and their support of the Earper family. This may be a shit show BUT IT IS OUR SHIT SHOW!
Haters gonna hate. And the real Earpers are gonna celebrate with Whiskey and Donuts. Wynonna Earp it’s much more than numbers, we are a family, full of love, positivity, respect, support and the best cast ever.
Absolutely love this show in every way possible. #earperforlife
YES!! So happy to hear there is another season!! This has to be one of my favorite shows ever. So freakin’ excited!!
