The Listener was renewed for a third season on June 1, 2011, and will premiere on May 30, 2012.
Plot Summary:With the mental strain of his telepathic abilities taking its toll, Toby (Craig Olejnik) has vowed to ignore them and live a normal life. Especially since Dr. Olivia Fawcett (Mylène Dinh-Robic) has warned him that his life depends on it. But his good intentions are thrown into question when he finds himself in a very bad situation - taken hostage by violent robbers during a bank heist. Realizing that the only way to ensure the safety of the other hostages is to risk his, Toby takes some bold action. And while his decisions also help Sgt. Michelle McCluskey (Lauren Lee Smith) with a major investigation, they land him in another precarious situation when she's forced to tell her boss Alvin Klein (Peter Stebbings) about Toby's mysterious insights.
