The dysfunctional relationship between DeadToMe’s lead characters keeps viewers coming back for more.

It’s been two years since the car-crashing, swimming pool-drowning, body-burying duo of Jen and Judy was last on our TV screens in the Emmy nominated Netflix comedy-drama Dead to Me. Fans of the show got good news with the recent announcement that Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini will be returning this fall as the crime-dodging partners for the show's third and final season.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY RELATED: 'No Good Deed': New Show From 'Dead to Me' Creator Liz Feldman Gets Series Order at Netflix Judy strikes Jen's husband with her car, and in a panic, leaves him to die on the side of the road. To quash the overwhelming guilt she carries, Judy tracks down Jen at a support group for grieving spouses and, hoping to strike up a friendship with Jen, poses as a woman mourning the sudden death of her fiancé. It works. That is, until Jen finds out Judy's fiancé is very much alive. Friendship over.

Lest viewers think this is it for Jen and Judy and that Judy's on her way to prison, Dead to Me delivers yet another twist that brings the pair back together. Judy's slimy fiancé Steve , who was in the car the night Judy hit Jen's husband and insisted she drive away, threatens Jen, who retaliates with rage and blunt force trauma, sending Steve to his untimely death in her swimming pool, Sunset Boulevard style.
