Bridget Everett on Season 3 of ‘Somebody Somewhere,’ Saying Goodbye (For Now) to Sam Miller, and Giving Her Dog a Shot at Fame

The question of what, exactly, constitutes the “best show currently on the air” is a fraught one (thanks, streaming services!), but I’d like to make a humble plug for Somebody Somewhere, the Peabody Award-winning HBO series starring comedian Bridget Everett as Sam Miller, a Kansan woman in her 40s trying to move on and find happiness after the death of her sister. On the show’s third and final season, which premiered last Sunday, the rapport between Everett and Jeff Hiller, who plays Sam’s best friend Joel, is as winning as ever.

This week, Vogue spoke to Everett about embodying grief; celebrating “Bridget Everett Day” in her hometown of Manhattan, Kansas; casting her dog to play…her dog; and her long-held passion for cabaret. Watch the trailer for Season 3 of Somebody Somewhere below, then read the interview below.

Vogue: How does it feel to see the start of Season 3 out in the world?

Bridget Everett: It feels great. We really got to take our time writing this season, and and it’s such a family environment. I was very excited to be together with everybody, and it just felt like a deeper, richer experience this year. It was really incredible.

I, like so many fans of the show, am continually amazed at how beautifully you guys spotlight queer small-town life. To that end, is there a favorite fan interaction you’ve had?
