Sonic Boom season 3 (Mrclubtail1234)

The third season of Sonic Boom, a Franco-American animated series, premiered on March 4, 2022, served as the final season of the series, was made without any involvement from France, and debuted on Netflix, with the second streaming service to accept the season being Hulu.
Due to being produced in the USA and for better reception, it is the first season where Bill Freiberger serves as the director and takes a completely different approach from the previous seasons while keeping its comedic tropes intact, lacking most of the characters exclusive to Sonic Boom, featuring designs closer to the games, disregards all previous plots from the first two seasons, Seaside Island is revealed to be only a getaway place, and Eggman, due to having taken a break from villainy, does not appear although antagonists like Burnbot still appear as well as Eggman Industries.
== Plot ==
The third season focuses on the antics and misadventures of Team Sonic, who have decided to reside on Seaside Island for the summer, further fueled by Eggman's temporary retirement. However, characters still face troublesome wrongs such as missing their treasured belongings and facing off with Badniks, particularly Burnbot.

== Trivia ==
* Being a third season of Sonic Boom rather than a remake, it uses a revised version of the non-lyrical opening, complete with the game-accurate redesigns of Team Sonic.
* Compared to season 2, the animation of this season mimics that of the games, for it uses different production crew (especially the lack of French staff)
* Unlike both of the previous seasons, every episode in this season is canon to one another although it is not necessarily canon to the games.
* Despite being more game accurate, with Team Sonic admitting that they are having a vacation on Seaside Island, no locations or characters from the games are mentioned. This is because the staff still isn't allowed to use more characters from the games, only introducing Espio and Charmy as side characters for Vector.
* Out of all the characters from the games, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles are the only ones to wear their game clothing rather than their Boom clothing.
* It is one of the longest waits for another season in the franchise, as 5 years have passed from the last episode of Season 2 of Sonic Boom, which was released on 2017.
* Unlike the previous seasons, no episode uses a cat screech. This is for the purpose of being more faithful to the canon games.
* This is the first Sonic Boom season not to air on traditional television although it is still a part of Cartoon Network.
* While inherently non-canon to the previous 2 seasons, the 14th episode (named "The REAL Unnamed Episode") can be considered an attempt to add a healthy balance between appraise criticism as the episode in question is the most accurate to Sonic Boom.
* This is the first season (and the second Sonic TV series) where an expansion scene occurs. One was in "No Nonsense" from Sonic after he drowned his apprehension on a full-sized chilidog, another in "Bubble Trouble" when Amy's inhalation through her mouth caused the trapped air bubble to expand in her stomach, and the last in "Sticks' Food Stump", where Sonic feeds Sticks by blowing into the insertion pipe, causing the berries inside the food stump and shoot into Sticks' waiting mouth, which the hedgehog continues.
** A fourth instance almost appeared in the 17th episode "Why Vector Won't Roar", where Vector cited in a way that puffing himself up to produce a reptilian bellow (in reference to actual crocodilians) is not what he considered when invited in a house around his sidekick Charmy, Amy, and Tails.
* In the last episode, Burnbot is proven to be afraid of termites. While this is always intended to be comical, this can be justified as termites in real life are a serious pest, damaging homes, farting enough to contribute to global warming, and building mounds that can be considered an obstacle.
