It's official: The upcoming third season of the popular Irish comedy Derry Girls will be the series' last.

Set in Northern Ireland in the 1990s, Derry Girls follows the misadventures of a squad of ill-mannered teen girls as they navigate typical coming of age adventures against the backdrop of life during The Troubles, the colloquial name for the three-decades-long conflict between nationalists (mainly self-identified as Irish or Roman Catholic) and unionists (mainly self-identified as British or Protestant) that often resulted in bombings and other acts of terrorism.

It stars Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Nicola Coughlan, Jamie-Lee O’Donnell, Louisa Harland, and Dylan Llewellyn. (And, spoiler alert: It's truly incredible, heartfelt and hilarious by turns.)
