Alas, "Euphoria" returned after a long hiatus to much debate and mixed reviews.
Set five years after the events of Season 2, the characters of Sam Levinson's HBO teen drama now have an older, twentysomething look. Rue (Zendaya) works as an indentured servant for drug dealer Laurie (Martha Kelly), while Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) and Nate (Jacob Elordi) navigate married life.
"A group of childhood friends wrestle with the virtue of faith, the possibility of redemption, and the problem of evil," according to the series synopsis.

USA TODAY TV Critic Kelly Lawler gave the new season ★★ out of four, writing in the "four years since its last season and seven years since it began, 'Euphoria' has come back to a completely different zeitgeist ‒ and not just because Sydney Sweeney, Zendaya and newly minted Oscar nominee Jacob Elordi are all bona fide A-listers bigger than the show. The world has changed, the stars have changed, and 'Euphoria' has changed."
"There is less passion and vibrancy to the show, even at its most objectionable moments," she added. "The fire has gone out, the party drugs are all used up, and the lights have turned on at the club."
Here's what to know about when new episodes of "Euphoria" Season 3 will be released, including the hit show's airtime and cast.

Will 'Euphoria' return for Season 4?
HBO Max has not made any announcements regarding Season 4.
Series creator Sam Levinson hinted Season 3 would be the series's last, recently telling Variety that he writes "every season like it's the last season" and has "no plans" for a Season 4, adding he is currently completely focused on delivering his best work with Season 3.
"I want to finish this as strong as I can. I’m cutting (Episodes) 7 and 8 still," Levinson told Variety. "I’m putting some finishing touches. I just want to deliver a (expletive) slam dunk season."
Earlier this month, Zendaya on "The Drew Barrymore Show" indicated the series would end with Season 3.
"I think so, yeah," Zendaya told Barrymore when asked if it was the final season. "That closure is coming."
