Bosch: Legacy Season 3 – Will Maddie and Harry Bosch Become Estranged?

Fans have been waiting a long time for Bosch: Legacy season 3, but it’ll finally arrive in March 2025. Sadly, it’ll be the final season after Amazon canceled it despite strong viewing figures. They also axed the planned Jerry Edgar spin-off, but fans of the Connelly-verse can still look forward to the Ballard spin-off in the Fall of 2025. Despite this disappointment, fans are focusing their attention on savoring what’s left of Bosch: Legacy with 10 more episodes to go, and a resolution to the cliffhanger that could lead to Maddie and Harry Bosch’s relationship unraveling.

Bosch: Legacy season 2 ended with Maddie answering a call on her father’s phone from convicted killer, Preston Borders. The call implied that Harry Bosch gave the go-ahead for Maddie’s kidnapper, Kurt Dockweiler, to be killed during his prison lock up. If the allegations are true, this could lead to a potentially devastating impact on Maddie and Harry’s father-daughter relationship, which has already had its fair share of ups and downs over the years.

Harry and Maddie Bosch Face A Tough Conversation In Season 3 That Could Have Serious Ramifications For Their Relationship

Harry Bosch had a distant relationship with his daughter, Maddie, as she was growing up, partly down to her living so far away, but also due to his dedication to the LAPD. However, their relationship improved as the original Bosch series progressed, and Maddie came to live with her father in his swanky Los Angeles apartment. Their bond became tighter after the brutal murder of her mother, Eleanor, and Maddie began showing a keen interest in the justice system. She eventually decided to follow in Harry’s footsteps and joined the LAPD. Throughout the first two seasons of Bosch: Legacy, the tables were turned, and it was Maddie in law enforcement while Harry was a private citizen, and this caused them to butt heads on several occasions.

Maddie appears to be at a crossroads in her relationship with her father heading into Bosch: Legacy season 3, as she questions whether he was involved in the hit on Kurt Dockweiler. Season 2 ended on that particular question, and Bosch: Legacy season 3 will explore the answers to it, and if what Maddie suspects is true, it could have a serious effect on their relationship moving forward. Harry was always the moral compass that Maddie modeled herself on, whether it was the ‘Everybody Counts or Nobody Counts’ mantra, or his insistence on doing everything by the book. If Maddie discovers her father set aside all his principals to exact revenge on her kidnapper, their relationship might return to the estrangement that was a feature of her early years.

Maddie Has A Tight Bond With Her Father And It Will Probably Survive Even If It’s Revealed Harry Ordered Dockweiler’s Murder

One of the highlights of Bosch and Bosch: Legacy has been the evolution of Harry Bosch’s relationship with his strong-willed daughter, Maddie. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree when it comes to Bosch Jnr, and she has already proven her worth in the LAPD, rising up the ranks to land a role in the Crime Reduction Unit. Maddie idolizes her rock star ex-detective father, but if it transpires that he worked with Preston Borders, in a plot to kill Kurt Dockweiler, it will take some time to mend that rift. However, it’s likely Maddie will eventually come around to understanding Harry’s motives, after continuing to experience, courtesy of her LAPD career, how the justice system fails victims of crime. If Harry Bosch did commit the crime, it wasn’t like he was killing an honest citizen who didn’t deserve it. Also, it’s possible Maddie will also come to appreciate how much her father loves her, and if he did commit murder for hire, it came from a good place.

Fans are desperate to know exactly what happened, and if Preston Borders is just trying to stir up trouble between the pair. It was a significant cliffhanger that would have an aura of baiting the audience if it didn’t transpire that Harry Bosch actually crossed the line to protect his daughter. However, nobody knows what’s going to happen until Bosch: Legacy makes its long awaited return in 2025. It feels like this particular storyline involving Maddie and Harry Bosch won’t be fully resolved with only one more season, but that is currently how it stands unless the fans step up to persuade Amazon to continue the Bosch: Legacy crime saga.
