What’s To Come in ‘Under the Vines’ Season 3?
Under the Vines, which last aired in February 2023, will return six months from when we last saw Daisy and Louis, who are trying to eject William (Mark Mitchinson), the mysterious stranger who arrived at the end of Season 2 claiming half of Oakley. However, it seems his claim might be legitimate, so the Oakley crew must get sneaky to get rid of him, especially since he seems to be sucking up to their rivals Don (John Bach) and Marissa (Sara Peirse) at Shimmering Lake.
What’s more? Daisy has loads of other distractions, one of which is her wedding with David (Kirk Torrance) to plan and another is her “heart parent” duties for Nic. There’s also Vic’s impending birth; Tippy doesn’t want to talk about a new change in her life; and even Louis seems distracted after his rebuffed declaration of love.
Under the VinesSeason 3 will premiere onAcorn TVon August 19. Stay tuned to Collider for further information. In the meantime, stream past seasons on Acorn TV.
