How To With John Wilson Final Season Gets New Trailer

One of the more fascinating documentary series of the last few years is sadly about to come to an end, as HBO’s How To with John Wilson‘s Season 3 will serve as the series’ sendoff. Despite fans being sad to see it go, the nature of the program and Wilson’s documentary eye would make it a difficult project to run in perpetuity, so while fans will miss the program, it will be going out in a way that maintains its consistency. Ahead of the final season being unveiled, HBO has released an all-new trailer, which you can check out below. How To with John Wilson Season 3 premieres on July 28th.

In Season 3 of How To with John Wilson, documentary filmmaker and self-described “anxious New Yorker” John Wilson continues his heartfelt mission of self-discovery, exploration, and observation as he films the lives of his fellow New Yorkers while attempting to give everyday advice on six new deceptively simple and wildly random topics. Nathan Fielder (HBO’s The Rehearsal), Michael Koman, and Clark Reinking, who previously worked together on Nathan For You, serve as executive producers. Building upon Season 2, the episodes take unexpected turns, as John navigates a new set of topics including; how to find a public restroom, how to work out, and how to clean your ears.

“As we started work on Season 3, I found it exciting to think of it as the last one. It ended up opening a lot of narrative possibilities that weren’t available to us before and gave us the freedom to try some really ambitious stuff,” Wilson shared in a statement when the final season was announced. “While a part of me would be happy to go on making How To indefinitely, I take a lot of pride in trying to make the style and imagery feel surprising, and I would prefer to end the show while that’s still the case. Thematically, we also kind of reach a vanishing point by the finale, and it felt like a natural place to sign off.”

He added, “I plan to continue to experiment within the world of non-fiction and any ideas I have left over will just be put into the next thing. The project of documenting the current moment never really ends and even if the work changes title and shifts form, there will always be something worth capturing. It’s a miracle that a program like this ever made it on to HBO in the first place, and after 18 episodes, it feels like we pulled off some kind of incredible heist. I feel melancholy ending a project with such an amazing team, but I can’t be more thankful to HBO for their support, and for the fact that they let us experiment for three amazing seasons. So if you’re a fan of the show — thanks for watching, and buckle up, because there’s a crazy trip you’re about to take.”

How To with John Wilson premieres on HBO and Max on July 28th.
