‘Revenge’ Season 3 Premiere: ABC Drama Returns to Its Revengeful Roots

Emily Thorne is back! ‘Revenge’ fans can set aside their worries, because, as this year’s first episode showcases, the ABC drama is back to its traditional takedowns.

I was lucky enough to screen the Season 3 premiere titled ‘Fear,’ and let me tell you not only is the episode finally getting back to the nitty-gritty of ‘Revenge’ with Emily returning to her revengeful plans to destroy the Graysons, but it also has some pleasant twists and turns.

As the Season 3 promo promised, the premiere opens up with yet another flash-forward and with a bang -- literally. Emily is shot and falls off of a gorgeous yacht wearing a stunning wedding dress. The episode then transports us to the prior Memorial Day weekend and months after the events of the Season 2 finale.

Plenty happens, and as I can’t reveal it all, here are a few teases to hold you over until the Season 3 premiere airs. Enjoy!

-Not only is the show back with cutthroat agendas, but so is Charlotte, who has a killer new look.

-Jack and Emily’s first Season 3 moment is all I could have hoped for and feared for simultaneously.

-Victoria is really, and I mean really, cherishing her relationship with long-lost son, Patrick.

-Emily and [SPOILER] align to kick [SPOILER] to the curb and far away from the Hamptons.

-‘Pan Am’s Karine Vanasse makes her debut as French hottie Margaux.

-Jack gives Emily an ultimatum that might complicate Emily’s plans.

-The double-infinity sign returns in a surprising manner.

-Patrick, played by the extremely good-looking Justin Hartley, shows some skin while wearing nothing but a towel.

-Victoria and [SPOILER] might be joining forces to get rid of [SPOILER].

-Last, but not least, a major character faces death by way of a terminal disease.

Raise your hand if you can't wait for the premiere! ‘Revenge’ returns Sunday, Sept. 29 at 9/8c.
