Netflix has ordered ten episodes of Atypical, the coming-of-age series about Sam (Keir Gilchrist), a 19 year old on the autism spectrum, as he searches for love and independence. It also stars Jennifer Jason Leigh, Michael Rapaport, Brigette Lundy-Paine, Nik Dodani, Jenna Boyd, Amy Okuda, Graham Rogers and Fivel Stewart.

“I’m thrilled we’ll be doing a season four of Atypical,” Rashid said. “And while I’m so sad to be nearing the end of this series, I am extremely grateful to have been able to tell this story. Our fans have been such beautiful, vibrant supporters of this show. Thank you for being so open to Sam’s voice and stories, and those of the entire Gardner family.

“It’s my hope that the legacy of Atypical is that more unheard voices continue to be heard and that even after this series ends, we keep telling funny, emotional stories from underrepresented points of view.”

Netflix has confirmed that it is renewing its show Atypical for a third season.

The dramedy follows 18-year-old Sam who is trying to find his place in life with love and independence — all the while being on the autism spectrum.

Keir Gilchrist of It’s Kind of a Funny Story plays the teenager, while The Hateful Eight actress Jennifer Jason Leigh plays his mom, and Sully star Michael Rapaport takes on the role of his dad.

The series first premiered on the streaming network in 2017 and consisted of 8 episodes.

The show’s popularity was evidenced when Netflix increased the second season’s episode count to 10 when it released on September 7th 2018.

Less than two months later, fans have received assurance of a third season about the Gardner family with another 10 episodes expected next year.
