We're just days away from the Feb. 4 premiere of season two of "Sweet Magnolias", and call us greedy, but we're already wondering when we can expect a third season to hit Netflix. Given season one's explosive ending and season two's drama-packed trailer, by no means will we be ready to say goodbye to the sweet magnolias and Serenity by the finale. In addition to serving up lots of small town drama, complicated family dynamics, and bubbling romances, season two includes several returning characters as well as new and old love interests who'll undoubtedly need a third season to prove their mark and stir the pot. So, what does Netflix and showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson have up their sleeves? Unfortunately, only time will tell.

Sadly, Netflix hasn't renewed "Sweet Magnolias" for a third season yet. However, if the response to season one's cliffhanger is any inclination of how fans will react to season two, then "Sweet Magnolias" star JoAnna Garcia Swisher believes a third instalment could be in the works very soon.

"I think that there is a great excitement and willingness to do it. I think that Netflix has always been incredibly supportive of the show, and we feel like they really love it," she told POPSUGAR ahead of the season two premiere. "I think everybody would like to see it continue. Obviously, it has to resonate with fans and be successful in that way, but we have every reason to believe that we'll still get to continue the story. And I hope that the fans love this season even more than they love the first."

"Sweet Magnolias" got the green light for a second season just two months after its premiere. Given the buzz surrounding season two, fans could possibly get an answer about the fate of "Sweet Magnolias" in the upcoming weeks. Plus, keep in mind that "Sweet Magnolias" is based on the book series by Sherryl Woods, so there's plenty of more shenanigans and margaritas in Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue's future. Until then, sit back and enjoy season two!
