If the show is renewed, we'd expect the new episodes to arrive sometime in 2024. 

What is Sweet Magnolias about?

For those unfamiliar with the show, it follows lifelong best friends, Maddie, Helen and Dana Sue, as they juggle work, relationships and friendships in the fictional town of Serenity, South Carolina.

The third season follows on from the brawl at Sullivan's, with Maddie wrestling with the best way to help Cal and "clear her own emotional path". Meanwhile, Helen faces some "difficult decisions" about the men in her life and Dana Sue endeavors to find a way to use Miss Frances' check to help the community without upending her family. 

The synopsis continues: "The identity of the tire slasher sends shockwaves through Serenity, the recall causes unexpected consequences, and there are romantic surprises in every generation.

"Throughout the season, the ladies tackle these problems -- and all the complications they cause - with their trademark warmth, humor, and devotion to each other and those they love. And margaritas."
