The show *Smiling Friends* recently brought back the popular character Mr. Frog in a new episode from Season 3, and the creators have addressed whether this will be his last appearance. Fans were eagerly awaiting the new season, which began airing this fall, and so far, the episodes are living up to the hype. This is particularly true with the return of Mr. Frog, who appeared in the latest episode while grappling with an existential crisis.
The show *Smiling Friends* doesn’t always prioritize consistent storylines, often sacrificing them for a good laugh – and they’ve already done that this season. However, the ending of the episode “Le Voyage Incroyable de Monsieur Grenouille” strongly suggested – spoiler alert! – that Mr. Frog was leaving the show. After a period of feeling lost and questioning his purpose, he experiences a moment of self-discovery before seemingly saying farewell to viewers for the first time. Series creators Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel recently spoke with ComicBook to clarify whether this was a permanent goodbye.
Is This the End of Mr. Frog in Smiling Friends?
Michael Cusack shared that while they debated whether to reveal the full story, the ending of the recent Mr. Frog episode happened organically. They’d always planned to include a Mr. Frog episode each season, and this one simply concluded in a way that made them wonder if it was the character’s last appearance. They’re open to bringing Mr. Frog back if they can find a way to do so. Zach Hadel added that they have an idea for his return, though it’s likely to be controversial with fans of the episode, but he believes it will fit perfectly with the overall tone of *Smiling Friends*.
John Cusack addressed concerns about Mr. Frog’s future, assuring fans the character isn’t gone for good. He emphasized Mr. Frog is a favorite and they’re happy with how things currently stand, but left the possibility of future appearances open-ended. While Mr. Frog remains a part of the show’s world, the creators aren’t yet sure if they’ll create another episode centered around him.
Will Smiling Friends Have Another Mr. Frog Episode?

Fans are wondering if we’ll see another episode focused on Mr. Frog. According to Hadel, that’s uncertain. However, the character of Mr. Frog isn’t gone for good from the world of *Smiling Friends*. While the recent episode’s events might affect his role, he won’t be disappearing completely from the show.
Great news for fans! *Smiling Friends* will return for both Seasons 4 and 5 on Adult Swim. New episodes of Season 3 are currently airing on Sundays, and you can stream them on HBO Max starting the next day. What are your thoughts? Share them in the ComicBook Forum and join the discussion!
