A potential return to form for the Netflix series?
Netflix's most controversial series, 13 Reasons Why, will be making its return to the streaming platform in a week's time for its third season. Before then, however, the service has released one final trailer to give fans of the show a glimpse of what they can expect from the upcoming installment.
