A third season of Netflix's hit docuseries America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders is just days away. The show, which offers an intimate look at the grueling audition process and rigorous training schedule of the prestigious cheerleading squad, will premiere all seven episodes on June 16.
What to Expect in Season 3
Season 3 picks up with the team now earning higher salaries, following a campaign highlighted in the previous season. The synopsis teases: "With 30 veterans returning to auditions and only six spots available for hopeful newcomers, the competition is fiercer than ever." As the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' global profile expands, the women navigate increased attention, mounting pressure, and viral visibility while maintaining professionalism and poise.
The series will follow the 2025/26 squad, with senior director Kelli Finglass and head choreographer Judy Trammell returning. In the Season 3 trailer, they note that applications have surged due to the show's popularity, including from international hopefuls like an Australian candidate.
Behind the Scenes
Previous seasons highlighted the intense physical and mental toll of being on the team, with members balancing other jobs. Last season's push for higher pay succeeded after filming wrapped on Season 2. This season, the squad faces landmark opportunities such as the team's first tour and marquee appearances, alongside growing social media fame and global scrutiny.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the new episodes, with one commenting, "I'll never have enough seasons of this show," and another adding, "These girls work sooo hard." All episodes of America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Season 3 will be available to stream on Netflix from June 16.
