Search Party season 3 is set to premiere on Thursday, June 25. After seasons 1 and 2 premiered on TBS, the series has moved to HBO Max for its third season. Fans will be pleased to know that Search Party has also been renewed for a fourth season. However, HBO Max is only available in the US which means that you’ll need a Virtual Private Network (VPN) in order to watch it abroad.
We’re only recommending official sources for watching Search Party season 3. While there will be unauthorized streams of the show, they’re likely to be taken offline for copyright infringement. Combine this with their low resolution, excessive lag and buffering, and unofficial sources just aren’t worth your time. Besides, we’ll show you how to stream Search Party season 3 via official sources from anywhere in the world.
Keep in mind that Search Party season 3 will only be shown on region-locked platforms. If you’re traveling abroad (outside the US), you’ll need a VPN to continue watching via your regular streaming services from home.
How to watch Search Party season 3 online with a VPN
A VPN is a service that encrypts your online data. It does this by routing your internet traffic through an encrypted tunnel to its own servers. Upon connecting to a VPN server, you receive a new IP address. This makes it look as if you’re browsing from another location. As such, you can use a VPN to unblock geo-restricted content such as Search Party season 3.
Here’s how to watch Search Party season 3 online from anywhere:
- Sign up with a VPN provider. We recommend ExpressVPN. However, NordVPN and CyberGhost also unblock HBO Max and offer excellent value for money.
- Download a VPN app or browser extension. Be sure to check you’re installing the correct version for your device.
- Open the VPN app and connect to a server in the United States. This is how you get a US IP address which lets you unblock HBO Max and watch Search Party abroad.
- Go to HBO Max and sign in. Alternatively, sign up if you don’t already have an account. Note that you can watch HBO Max with or without cable.
- Select your preferred HBO Max Content. It should now play without any geographical restrictions. If it’s still blocked, you should try clearing your browser’s cookies.
It’s a good idea to test your VPN with HBO Max in advance of the Search Party season 3 premiere. Doing so provides you with plenty of time to address any issues you might encounter (and contact your VPN’s customer support for further assistance if necessary).
How to watch Search Party season 3 on US TV
Search Party season 3 will premiere on HBO Max after the series moved from TBS following its second season. Fortunately, there are multiple ways in which you can watch HBO Max. If you already subscribe to HBO via a US TV provider, you may already have access to HBO Max. In this case, all you need to do is sign in using the same login details you use with your TV provider (an email address or username and password).
While you can stream HBO Max via traditional cable TV providers, there’s also the option of watching cable-free via AT&T TV Now, Hulu with Live TV, and YouTube TV. However, it’s important to know that in all cases, HBO Max costs an additional $14.99 USD on top of the price of a regular subscription. Last but not least, you can simply subscribe directly to HBO Max (much like you would with any other streaming service such as Netflix) for $14.99 per month.
Whether you watch Search Party season 3 directly on HBO Max or via a TV provider or streaming service, you’ll need a VPN to watch abroad. All of the platforms listed above are only available in the US. To stream the geo-blocked content, connect to a server in the US. ExpressVPN includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. This gives you a chance to try it out risk-free and request a refund if you decide it’s not for you.
Where can I watch Search Party seasons 1 and 2?
If you’d like to rewatch Search Party seasons 1 and 2, you can do so on HBO Max. However, you also have the option of purchasing individual episodes and full seasons on Amazon Prime Video. At the time of writing, episodes are priced at $2.99 (SD) and $3.99 (HD) each while a full season costs $14.99 (SD) or $19.99 (HD). Again, if you’d like to watch Search Party on HBO Max or Amazon Prime Video, you’ll need a US IP address via a VPN.
What can we expect from Search Party season 3?
Like seasons 1 and 2, Search Party season 3 will be made up of 10 episodes, each with a runtime of roughly 25 minutes. The first episode is titled “The Accused”. From what we can see in the season 3 trailer, Dory and her friends are in for a rough ride! Dory and Drew have been arrested for the semi-accidental murder of a private investigator. Portia and Elliott decide whether or not they should testify. What’s more, the very public arrest of Dory means the case has attracted interest worldwide.
Which cast members are returning for Search Party season 3?
Fortunately, the main cast of Search Party is back for season 3. This includes Alia Shawkat as Dory, John Reynolds as Drew, John Early as Elliott, Meredith Hagner as Portia, and Brandon Michael Hall as Julian.
