“Being part of this show has changed my life, and seeing it recognized like this for the 3 year in a row is amazing and Unreal,” cast member Dani Bowman posted. “Thank you to the Academy for celebrating neurodiverse love, stories, and voices. To everyone who’s watched, supported, and celebrated with us, this is OUR win too!!!”
Netflix has already renewed “Love on the Spectrum” for a fourth season. The U.S. show, which aired its third season this spring, is a spinoff of an Australian version.
