"The Life and Times of Tim" still has some life left in it after all.HBO, which canceled the series earlier this year, has reversed course and decided to order a third season of "Tim." Like the first two seasons, Season 3 will run for 10 episodes, Deadline.com reports.
"Tim" joins a roster of canceled-then-resurrected animated series that also includes "Family Guy" and "Futurama" -- although unlike those shows, its fans won't have to wait years between new episodes. HBO hasn't set a return date yet, but it's conceivable the show could be back in the lineup in 2011.
Steve Dildarian created the show and does the voice of Tim, whose life is a series of small humiliations that snowball into big ones. It's produced by MRC, which also makes the already-renewed "Ricky Gervais Show" for HBO.
Are you happy to have "Tim" back?

YESS!!! This is GREAT news. was so sad to hear it was canceled.
Yes! I was so mad at HBO for canceling this clever show. It's one of the few good shows HBO has to offer right now.
YES, I am so excited to hear this! Signs of intelligent life at HBO!! The show is absolutely brilliant and always hilarious.
OMG I just found this out! That's great news!! I only discovered it mid season two and when I found out it was not coming back for a third season, just like Flight of the Conchords and Ali G* before it, I was choked at HBO.
*Had Ali G come back for a 3rd season, we may not have gotten Borat and Bruno movies, so maybe that was for the best, although I found Da Ali G show to be a little smarter than the Borat film, and way smarter than Bruno film.
WHEN?!? WHEN?!? WHEN?!?
"Tim!!!!"
