Iconic genre star Laura Vandervoort (SMALLVILLE, Ted) returns to helm the sexy thriller as the embattled Elena Michaels, the world’s only female werewolf. Season 3 of the 10-episode, one-hour series delves into the theme of duty versus family, and the lengths one will go to keep both intact. Space also revealed today a chilling sneak peek at Season 3 of BITTEN.
Season 3 picks up several months after the harrowing battle in the Season 2 finale. Bolstering their ranks in the wake of the carnage The Pack is on the hunt for a dangerous group of traitorous Mutts lead by former Spanish Alpha, Eduardo Escobado (Mishka Thébaud, SAVING HOPE). Meanwhile, Elena struggles with Pack Alpha Jeremy Danvers’ (Greg Bryk, A History Of Violence, THE BOOK OF NEGROES) new draconian leadership style, and makes a shocking and surprising discovery about herself.
“With the incomparable Laura Vandervoort at the helm, BITTEN was a ferocious drama from the get-go and we are so proud to have seen it make its mark in the television landscape from its home on Space,” said Tracey Pearce, Senior Vice-President, Specialty and Pay, Bell Media. “Along with the many devoted fans, we cannot wait to see what happens with Elena and the rest of The Pack as the BITTEN saga finally culminates in Season 3.”
“We are grateful to our broadcast partners at Space for three seasons of support,” said Executive Producer and Director, J.B. Sugar. “Season 3 takes us back to our werewolf roots and, with our strongest scripts and performances yet, I am confident fans in Canada and around the world are going to be hungry for more.”
“Alongside J.B., the entire cast and crew and our incredible broadcast partners, we are excited to deliver this powerful upcoming season to the show’s loyal fans who are chomping at the bit for more,” said John Morayniss, CEO, eOne Television.
In the Season 3 premiere episode, “Family, of Sorts” (Friday, Feb. 12 at 10 p.m. ET), in order to solidify his power, a war-hardened Jeremy has tasked Elena, Clay, and Nick with recruiting all North American Mutts into The Pack. But, when an unknown werewolf sniper takes a shot at the Alpha, The Pack must adjust course to track down those responsible. Meanwhile, Elena is accosted by a mysterious stranger who challenges her with a shocking claim.
Season 3 of BITTEN also sees the return of Pack members Clayton Danvers (Greyston Holt, ALCATRAZ, DURHAM COUNTY) and Nick Sorrentino (Steve Lund, BEING ERICA, HAVEN).

THERE IS STILL SO MUCH MORE THAT CAN BE DONE WITH THIS SHOW!!!!!YOU GUY’S KEEP TAKING OFF GOOD SHOWS TO STUPID ASS **** ON!!!!!!TAKE ONE OF THE MANY SHOW’S LIKE FACEOFF,COOKING SHOW’S OR MANY OF THE OTHERS.BUT KEEP BITTEN ON!!!!!!!!
No I don’t like that you are taken it off..I find a show I like you all take it off what’s up with that. I never liked Syfy till Being Human and Biten came.
My husband and I love this show please bring it back!!!
Please DO NOT cancel. There is not much out there anymore to watch with the end to True Blood, Being Human and Lost Girls. There are too many crime shows. I would pay to watch more seasons of Bitten. And so would many people I know. All the shows about werewolves, Vampires and exceptional humans are all ending. There is not much left to watch. People with imaginations live vicariously through these shows. Please please Don’t cancel.
Please do not cancel!! I really enjoy this show! There needs to be more. What happens after humans find out about the wolf’s and does clay and Elena have kids. What happens with the Russians and what do the other Alpha’s think or do once they find out what all happened. Finally, what happens with Nick and Rachel. There is so much I want to know. There needs to be a seasion 4!! PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL!!!!!!
I want more. Thats all that needs to be said.
I enjoyed the show even though it did not follow the books. I would love to see a season 4 but with the way they ended season 3 it was so far from the books only the characters would be the same.
We NEED season 4!!!! This is one of the best programs I have seen it rewatch it all the time!!! I read the books and even tho it does not follow the books it is still awesome!!!
Please bring back Bitten! I REALLY ENJOY THIS TV SHOW. I know there’s more to the storey.
please dont cancel Bitten.. I need Season 4!!
please bring a season 4.. I love Bitten!!!
I was very happy that we the fans were given closure with the opportunity to still continue the story if it gets picked up by another network. Bitten is a one of a kind so I think it should continue for at least a few more seasons I like at least 7 seasons to a series to do a complete storyline so as not to get bored to quickly when rewatching a TV show . I will probably still purchase this box set when available
Please keep the series Bitten on . Looked forward every week to sit down and watch something I loved . Loved the whole series . Please give us more. Don’t want to loose such a great show. I love,love,love this show. Please don’t cancel love the characters and the entire story line.
Someone is gonna pick this series up….its way to juicy to just let go! Come onnnnnnnn! Somebody, ANYBODY, PICK THIS SERIES UP! Bitten is the BOMB.COM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When the gossip stops, then thats your que, to shut it down. But as for now, someone has gotta pick this up – Hello Any Networks wanna make some easy money!?!?!?!?
