Hurricane parties, homemade hamster wheels, and a telepathic dolphin. Florida has no shortage of stories that sound too wild to be true, and “IT’S FLORIDA, MAN.” is back to bring another batch to the screen.
The HBO Original late-night comedy series returns for its third season on Friday, December 4, 2026, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max. The six-episode season will roll out weekly on Fridays, concluding January 8, 2027.
From Rough House Pictures, the team behind HBO’s “Eastbound & Down” and “The Righteous Gemstones,” the series pairs candid accounts from everyday Floridians with recreations featuring a rotating cast of actors and comedians. The result is an irreverent look at the people behind the headlines, with plenty of humor and heart beneath the chaos.
Season 3’s guest stars include Vanessa Hudgens, Chace Crawford, Bob Odenkirk, Anna Camp, Anthony Ramos, Sharon Stone, Taye Diggs, Seth Green, Mo Amer, Kevin Nealon, Skyler Gisondo, Stephen Root, Brett Gelman, Patton Oswalt, Tony Cavalero, Harvey Guillén, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Gabriel Iglesias, Melissa Villaseñor, Adam Ray, David Wain, Mike Mitchell, Carl Tart, Amanda Lehan-Canto, Deborah Baker Jr., William Fichtner, Johnny “Roastbeef” Williams, Chelsea Frei, Daniella Pineda, and Jacob Wysocki.
