DISNEY XD PICKS UP A THIRD SEASON OF HIT BIONIC COMEDY SERIES “LAB RATS”
Disney XD has ordered a third season of its #1 series “Lab Rats,” it was announced today by Adam Bonnett, Executive Vice President, Original Programming, Disney Channels Worldwide. Production on the hilarious adventure series will resume in Los Angeles, California in September for a Winter 2014 premiere.
“The comedic storytelling coupled with the chemistry between our incredibly talented creative team and ensemble cast has created a show that resonates with our Disney XD audience,” said Bonnett. “We’re looking forward to continuing that success with a third season that flexes the Lab Rats’ bionic powers with action-packed adventures and higher stakes.”
Created by Chris Peterson and Bryan Moore (“That ’70s Show”) and executive-produced by Peterson, Moore and Hayes Jackson (“According to Jim”), the series stars Billy Unger as Chase, Spencer Boldman as Adam, Kelli Berglund as Bree, with Tyrel Jackson Williams as Leo and Hal Sparks as Davenport.

I lovethat show I think that person was Marcus
I am in love with this show I can’t wait for season 3 and by the way that guy that rescued Douglas was to tall to be Marcus so it’s probably not Marcus but it is a possibility.
Definitely not Marcus lol
It’s not Marcus Marcus died and doesn’t ever show again and I have seen every single episode thats been produced. The mysterious guy is Viktor Crane for those who don’t know he is a sociopath that has been implanting himself with bionics for years.
Love this show so much!
I’m 36 and absolutely love this show. I started watching by myself one night on netflix to test it out and was hooked from day one. I got my husband and two kids (4 & 6) hooked too. It has become our “family show”. I love the main character (Leo), he is AWESOME!! I also love the silly episodes. I’m so glad there are more seasons than just the 1st on netflix!
Yes I love this show, but I think they need to have Marcus on more episodes.
Yah’ first of all Marcus DIED in bionic showdown.
No he didn’t remember he raised his hand out of the rubble and btw there is like a 90% chance he rescued Douglas in no going back
he can’t die. he is a robot
