On the start of the weekday, the crew of "Humans" started shooting their "Biggest, boldest series yet!" as announced by Vincent. "Best of luck to the #1 cast & crew in TV (mug by superfan @ns_nissy)," he continued.

The third season of the sci-fi show is expected to air next year, with a more specific date being expected in the coming weeks. "Humans" season 3 will run for eight episodes, as announced earlier in AMC's press release last March.
The show explores the idea of "synths," artificial humans augmented by hyper-advanced technology set in the present time. The show "provides a thrilling look at the evolution of technology and its effect on society," Joel Stillerman, president of original programming and development for AMC, described the series.
"The critical response to season two celebrates the creative vision, dynamic story-telling and compelling portrayals shared by the writers, producers and actors," Stillerman added in an earlier statement, acknowledging the warm reception of critics and avid fans of the show.
Season 2 of "Humans" ended in a cliffhanger of a season finale, and fans will be looking forward to how much the world has changed with the events of the second season. "The 'Humans'audience will know that the end of series 2 changed everything," writers Vincent and Jonathan Brackley teased in an earlier press statement, as quoted by Den of Geek.
