Season 3 is the third season of the CW's Kung Fu series. The season premiered on October 5, 2022[1]
Synopsis
After an earthquake hit Chinatown in the season two finale, season three opens with Nicky, her family, and her community attempting to rebuild in more ways than one. Nicky, still reeling from her abrupt breakup with her boyfriend Henry, and the shocking death of her nemesis-turned-ally Zhilan, puts on a brave face as she juggles a new job teaching kung fu while fighting a growing crime wave in San Francisco. Mei-Li struggles to keep Harmony Dumplings afloat, while rebuilding the restaurant; and Jin helps the rest of the community get back on its feet. Althea has lost her company and finds herself jobless, living in the cramped Shen house, while Dennis works a variety of service gigs to help make ends meet. Ryan adjusts to cohabitating with boyfriend Sebastian, while working fulltime as an ER resident; and Evan embarks on a new legal venture. But just as Nicky and the Shens are finding their footing, Nicky is thrown on her heels by the introduction of a mysterious vigilante, Bo — and the shattering return of a woman who appears to be her deceased shifu, Pei-Ling. Pei-Ling’s shocking return will engulf Nicky in an epic and dangerous story, filled with mystery and magic… a story that will have momentous consequences for Nicky and the whole Shen family.
