Army Wives Season Three
Previewing the New Season of Lifetime’s Hit Series
When the previous season ended the Holdens were scheduled to transfer to Brussels where Col. Holden would be working with NATO. The Sherwoods were facing marital conflict, and the LeBlancs were trying to keep the bar running.
Season Three
This season premiers on June 7 with the characters all facing more drama and crises. First of all, Emmalin Holden has run off to marry her army boyfriend, keeping her parents in limbo about what their future plans hold.
Major Sherwood is in Iraq dealing with the war and the fact that his estranged wife cheated on him. With his son also in Iraq, their minds must be completely focused on their jobs, rather than the emotional upheaval of the marriage.
Roxy LeBlanc is facing more trouble at the bar. She risks losing the place to the man who claims to be Betty’s nephew. Is blood thicker than water? Or tequila?
Joan Burton must deal with the fact that she is in the Army and also a mother to a new born baby girl, while her husband Roland faces the challenges of being “Mr. Mom.”
And Pamela Moran tries her hand at a new job.
Army Life
The regimens of the characters’ lives on the post make confronting their personal problems even that much more difficult. For Denise Sherwood, she has to face the fact that the entire post knows about her extra-marital affair. Gossip spreads like weeds on an Army post.
Lifetime’s Hit Series
Army Wives quickly became the network’s number one drama series. The characters appeal to many demographics. Women, men, and all age groups find the lives of the families interesting and entertaining. The series has won several awards.
Webisodes as Tributes to Veterans
This Memorial Day, Lifetime and Lifetime.com are paying tribute to American veterans with webisodes of interviews with real army wives. They have made more than a dozen online tributes which will not only honor the servicemen and servicewomen, but also bring real stories to the viewers. This series of webisodes is called Homecoming: Real Army Wives.
Christian Martin, Vice President, Broadband Strategy and Development, Lifetime Networks, says, “We created the segments to honor these brave and courageous women and to support them while their husbands defend our country. We also wanted to create a safe online community for them to gather and socialize with one another to receive encouragement until their servicemen return home safely.” He explains, “Wives of military personnel face incredible challenges while their husbands serve tours of duty. Homecoming: Real Army Wives provides a real-life glimpse into what their lives are like when their spouses are away,”
Army Wives Season Three premiers June 7. The first two episodes of this season are nothing short of tense, dramatic, and engaging.
Seasons One and Two are available on DVD. Fans might want to brush up on some of the past storylines prior to the new season.
