– Season 1 streaming on CraveTV in the Sci-Fi & Fantasy collection and on Space.ca; Season 2 to launch January 15 –TORONTO (December 9, 2015) – After gallons of blood spilled, hundreds of shirts ripped, and countless Mutts slain, Space confirmed today that its hit original series BITTEN returns for its third and final season February 12 in a new Fridays at 10 p.m. ET timeslot. Iconic genre star Laura Vandervoort (SMALLVILLE, Ted) returns to helm the sexy thriller as the embattled Elena Michaels, the world’s only female werewolf. Season 3 of the 10-episode, one-hour series delves into the theme of duty versus family, and the lengths one will go to keep both intact. Space also revealed today a chilling sneak peek at Season 3 of BITTEN. To view the clip, click here.
Season 3 picks up several months after the harrowing battle in the Season 2 finale. Bolstering their ranks in the wake of the carnage The Pack is on the hunt for a dangerous group of traitorous Mutts lead by former Spanish Alpha, Eduardo Escobado (Mishka Thébaud, SAVING HOPE). Meanwhile, Elena struggles with Pack Alpha Jeremy Danvers’ (Greg Bryk, A History Of Violence, THE BOOK OF NEGROES) new draconian leadership style, and makes a shocking and surprising discovery about herself.
“With the incomparable Laura Vandervoort at the helm, BITTEN was a ferocious drama from the get-go and we are so proud to have seen it make its mark in the television landscape from its home on Space,” said Tracey Pearce, Senior Vice-President, Specialty and Pay, Bell Media. “Along with the many devoted fans, we cannot wait to see what happens with Elena and the rest of The Pack as the BITTEN saga finally culminates in Season 3.”
“We are grateful to our broadcast partners at Space for three seasons of support,” said Executive Producer and Director, J.B. Sugar. “Season 3 takes us back to our werewolf roots and, with our strongest scripts and performances yet, I am confident fans in Canada and around the world are going to be hungry for more.”
“Alongside J.B., the entire cast and crew and our incredible broadcast partners, we are excited to deliver this powerful upcoming season to the show’s loyal fans who are chomping at the bit for more,” said John Morayniss, CEO, eOne Television.
In the Season 3 premiere episode, “Family, of Sorts” (Friday, Feb. 12 at 10 p.m. ET), in order to solidify his power, a war-hardened Jeremy has tasked Elena, Clay, and Nick with recruiting all North American Mutts into The Pack. But, when an unknown werewolf sniper takes a shot at the Alpha, The Pack must adjust course to track down those responsible. Meanwhile, Elena is accosted by a mysterious stranger who challenges her with a shocking claim.
Season 3 of BITTEN also sees the return of Pack members Clayton Danvers (Greyston Holt, ALCATRAZ, DURHAM COUNTY) and Nick Sorrentino (Steve Lund, BEING ERICA, HAVEN). Also returning are Tommie-Amber Pirie (Michael: Tuesdays & Thursdays) as Paige Winterbourne, and Genelle Williams (REMEDY, WAREHOUSE 13) as Rachel Sutton. New to the cast this season is John Ralston (DEGRASSI), Alex Ozerov (ORPHAN BLACK), and Sofia Banzhaf (REPUBLIC OF DOYLE), mysterious new characters who throw Elena’s and The Pack’s lives into disarray.
Throughout its run, Season 2 of BITTEN made Space the #1 specialty network in its timeslot across all key Adult and Female demos during its timeslot (Saturdays at 9 p.m. ET).

I am so sick of you people, you canceled Bitten, Dominion Defiance & Eureka. Other than Z Nation there isn’t a thing to watch on this station anymore. Oh and let’s not forget Warehouse 13. I am so happy my family is getting my the gismo to stream for Christmas now I will be able to watch Netflix & HuLu. Between constant horrid sickening news & idiot shows like Duck Dynasty, which I wouldn’t allow my dogs to watch, there is nothing worthwhile on TV
Thank you, you have ruined a wonderful medium
Angela Fields says
i agree, but i also liked the following from syfy: Olympus , Lost Girl , Killjoys , Dark Matter , (just started to watch) Childhoods End , and The Magicians… but dont get me started on other networks that cancelled fav shows of mine

teshai01 says
I agree with this cancellation, they needed better actors to play the parts, Clay was terrible. It just seemed low budget and was not doing the books justice. Laura Vandervoort was the only one I rated.
