Every time a new season of Stranger Things releases, there’s a lot of buzz. Season three left a lot of questions, so we all want to know when the fourth is coming. Netflix has announced the fourth season but getting a release date was like pulling teeth. Production kept getting delayed, and we honestly had no clue when we would see a fourth season (if at all).
Thankfully, we have the actual dates. The fourth season will be split into two different parts. Part one will release on May 27th. The second will come five weeks later on July 1st. With the tagline "the end has a beginning," we're also sad to announce that the show will be ending come the fifth season.
Inventing Anna is a special show. It's about real-life criminal Anna Delvey. It follows her life as she rises as a massive socalite and then falls just as hard as a fraudster. The series is nine episodes and ends with her trial. It was originally billed as a limited series (i.e. only having one season).
That being said, that doesn't necessarily mean it won't get a second season. Haunting of Hill House was also a limited series and it had two (possibly three) seasons. However, we wouldn't hold our breath for an additional season. If anything, they'll find another criminal to follow.
Squid Games landed on the platform, and it was almost out of left field! The concept was strange, and it took about an hour for it to get going, but when it did — just wow. It wasted no time and shoved so much content into one season. Then, it was over. Fans were left wanting more.
The showrunner wasn't sure if he wanted to create more seasons. He said he wanted to have a team of writers so he could make the season as epic as the first. Then, Netflix announced that there was officially going to be another season! Honestly, they can keep this thing going forever (as long as the writing is good).
Fan of Master of None? Then we have some bad news. Unfortunately, there won't be a fourth season. Netflix recently announced that there wouldn't be a fourth season, especially since the third wasn't originally going to be the finale. That means we'll never see what happens with Dev's relationship and where things are gonna go.
There's a possibility that the show could get a spin-off, but given Netflix's history, we wouldn't hold our breaths. Netflix has a history of giving a show three to four seasons before dropping it like a hot rock. All this could be a culmination of Aziz's recent headlines, but it could also mean Ansari is working on another show.
The Witcher, based on the Polish book series of the same name, as well as the video game franchise, is a medieval-inspired tale of Geralt of Rivia – a monster hunter for hire, and Yennefer, a sorceress, and the Princess Ciri. The second season recently released, and it was just as amazing as the first.
We're not going to say that Henry Cavill is a bit part of that, but...well, ya know. The third season has already been announced, but no one knows the date. Along with that, there will be a second anime feature film and a new family series set in the same world.
This Groundhog-Day-esque show was a major hit with fans, especially since it starred the charming Natasha Lyonne. It was a hit early on, and everyone wanted more. Unfortunately, the show hit some stumbles (like many did come 2020). It was offiically renewed, but put off because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Production didn't resume until March 2021. Then, the show was in limbo again.
There was a little fear since the show still could get canceled. It wouldn't be the first one to get the axe after being renewed. Thankfully, we've heard from the Netflix gods! Russian Doll has been officially renewed and episodes will be coming our way on April 20th. Until then, you can watch the trailer to get a little peek of what to expect.
Everyone thought the Karate Kid was over, but that wasn't completely true. Netflix brought back the movie in the form of a TV series. It takes place 34 years after the Karate Tournament and follows Johnny Lawrence as he seeks redemption. So, he decided it was time for the Cobra Kai dojo!
There have already been three seasons of Cobra Kai, which makes it dangerous for Netflix – the streaming platform rarely keeps shows past their third season. Thankfully, Cobra Kai leaped over that hurdle. It’s already filming for its fourth season, which will hit our screens on December 31st, 2021.
The Umbrella Academy blew audiences and critics away. After it drew 45 million viewers in the first month, Netflix was hot to renew it. They aren't going to let this great show die. The bad part is that we've had to wait a while for the next season to get here.
That really sucks considering how much of a cliffhanger it left me on. We're also sorry to inform you that there's no solid relase date for the third season. We do, however, know that it's coming in early 2022. It is known that the third premiere episode will be titled "Meet the Family."
Big Mouth is sticking around! With the talent on the show, it's no surprise that the show is doing well. We all knew it was coming. Netflix absolutely loves this animated series, so it's one of the few that's gotten more than three seasons! Season five released last year on November 5th, 2021. So, when is the next one coming?!
Animation takes some time, but we can tell you that the next season is well on its way. There isn't an official release date, but you can expect it to land on the streaming platform come October. THat's when the show has historically released it's newest episodes, so (barring an unforseen event) it'll likely be October again.
We can say without a doubt that Bojack Horseman was one of Netflix's best animated series. The show was a fan favorite for almost six seasons! But in September 2018, Netflix had announced that the sixth season would be the last. The sixth season was especially well-received with a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes. it aired in January 2020.
Thanks to the BoJack Horseman team, we got a really great finale. We'd argue that it is probably one of better finales of any TV show we've seen. It was called "Nice While It Lasted," and we can't agree with that sentament more. If you loved BoJack and haven't seen Big Mouth — it'll definitely become your next favorite.
Lucifer has had quite rough time. The show was canceled, but Netflix was there to pick it up. Fans absolutely rejoiced, but it didn't last as long as they wanted. To be fair, the streaming service said it would give Lucifer one season to end, but then that became two new seasons! This gave them twice the amount of time to wrap everything up.
The deal became official at the end of February 2021, but it was still tears all around. Lucifer has certainly had more chances than most, and the cast and crew made the finale amazing. The final episodes aired on September 10, 2021.
The fourth and final season of Ozark is definitely coming, but we want to know when! What really sucks is that we found out the show was being split into two different parts. We just got the first part, but the second? We'll have to wait a little bit for that one.
The first part was fantastic, so we're happy to see that the showrunners are taking it all so seriously. You won't have to wait until next year for the next part, either. You'll see new episodes loaded onto Netflix starting April 29, 2022! Mark your calendar and get ready for the sure-to-be-crazy finale.
Mindhunter is an absolute rollarcoaster. The show started out with a bang, especially since it included some of the top true crime people we've all read about for decades. The only real issue with this show? It takes forever and a day to get a new season. Recently, it was paused because of the pandemic...and that's it.
The show hasn't been renewed, and that's rough for all of us huge fans. We want to know what happens! The show isn't technically canceled, so there's still hope. However, we've been through this with Arrested Development. If you're feeling the true crime itch, you can always read John E. Douglas's book "Mindhunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Social Crime Unit."
GLOW’s third season released in August 2019, and in September of that year, you may have heard the news of a fourth season but that was all up in the air. That's not a good sign for any show on any network. Sadly, the show never started production.
Everyone knew what that meant, but fans still waited for the official work. In October 2020, the fourth and final season that was supposed to happen - ended up getting canceled. It wasn't the first show to have this happen, but it was certainly a hard hit.
The hit royal show, The Crown, was renewed by Netflix for seasons four and five, but sadly, that's where it will end. Showrunner Peter Morgan opened up to The Daily Mail about the decision to wrap it up a bit earlier than originally planned: "You can’t fully examine incidents that happened yesterday.”
He went on to say that “there has to be 10 to 20 years’ distance. And in some instances, much longer." Filming has already begun, and we've been given a release date for the fifth season. You can catch the newest season of The Crown in November 2022, likely around the middle of the month if history of the show has told us anything.
You is one of the creepiest shows on Netflix, and fans loved it. It's definitely got something to do about Penn Badgley. Anything he's in does well. Netflix has decided to keep the show going, but it's definitely becoming a little messy. Season three landed on October 2021, and everyone binged watched it.
Somehow, Netflix managed to renew the series before anyone even finished the third season! We love to hear it. We're all obsessed with Joe. We'll have to wait a little bit for the next season. If it follows past trends, the show will pop up again at the end of 2022, but it could be delayed until 2023.
The Haunting of Hill House did extremely well, as did The Haunting of Bly Manor. Fans were glued to the screen with every twist and turn. The scary anthology series told two standalone stories based on the novels The Haunting of Hill House and The Turn of the Screw.
While they shared many of the same cast members playing different characters, Bly Manor was not a sequel. Whether there will be a third entry of this Haunting series is unknown, but for now, there are no plans. The showrunners are looking for the perfect piece of litearture before they commit to another season.
This show left things open for a second season, and the director has also hinted at Netflix wanting to see how the first season did before committing to a second. Unfortunately, it didn't do as well as Netflix had hoped, and they decided to cancel it in September 2020.
Netflix dropped this one like a hot rock. The show wasn't bad. It actually won an Emmy! So what happened?! No one really knows, especially since the streaming giant refuses to release demographics or information about a canceled series. Our guess is that Netflix doesn't foster cult-classics like they do others, so it just didn't hit the right benchmarks.
Altered Carbon was so good that Netflix renewed it almost immediately for a second season. The author of the original series stated that if “all goes well” the show could run for five seasons. Shooting for season two began in February 2019, and was released in February 2020. So, what happened with season three?
Well, if you hadn't heard by now, the series hasn't been put on hold because of COVID-19 - Netflix canceled it. The fate of the show wasn't linked to the pandemic. It was actually canceled because they just weren't getting enough viewership. On top of that, the show didn't trend like the first season had.
Early September 2020, Netflix announced that season seven of Grace and Frankie would be the final season. This makes Grace and Frankie the longest-running original series with a total of 94 episodes. Way to go, ladies! However, the season hasn't finished filming yet as productions was halted in March 2020 due to COVID-19.
Because things were so delayed, the streaming giant and showrunners released four episodes of season seven just to tide the fans over. We don't have the exact release date for the second part, but Netflix has told everyone it'll be "2022." We're guessing it'll come mid-2022.
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Spellman did so well at first that the series was renewed for a third and fourth season! Talk about a series that came in with a bang. However, the third and fourth seasons were just eight episodes each. In between the third and fourth seasons, in July 2020, the show was canceled.
The show definitely hit a dead-end, and lost a ton of viewership. That led to the show not getting as much attention as it needed. The worst part? The series finale left fans wanting, claiming that the show deserved better. From a Game of Thrones fan, c'est la vie.
Fuller House was fun, but all good things must come to an end. The fifth and final season premiered in December 2019 and ended in June 2020. We got the answers to some burning questions, and we also got a chance to say goodbye to everyone for one last time.
It was honestly great to see everyone once again and to get a good, heart-felt finale. We're honestly happy it ended when it did considering Bob Saget's unforutne, sudden death. We're sure everyone was heartbroken over this loss, so being that the show was over, it was just one less stressor to deal with.
We've been waiting for season six of Black Mirror for a while now. Considering the current state of the world, the show will surely have plenty of material. Part of us wonders if the state of things currently makes the show harder to write. It's hard to come out with something dystopian when it feels like we're living it.
According to NetflixLife, production began in 2021. If that's true, we'll see new episodes of this dystopian anthology come 2022. If not? Well, we're still waiting. Another report states that we'll see season six by late 2022 or early 2023. As the date gets pushed back, we're not sure it'll ever come back. Right now, it's TBD.
Firefly Lane, based on the novel of the same name, premiered in February 2021. It tracks the story of two teenagers in the '70s up until adulthood in the early 2000s. Fortunately for fans, Netflix decided to renew the series in May 2021. Supposedly, the show was going to release in March of 2022.
Then, the lineup for March 2022 came out and...Firefly Lane was noticably absent. Um...what? Filming has taken a little longer than expected, so a spring release has been completely tkaen off the table. Now, it's suspected that we'll see season two of the series in August or September.
Maybe the age of superheroes is finally waning? Either way, the Netflix superhero drama just premiered in May 2021 but has already been canceled. It followed multiple generations of superheroes, beginning in 1929. It was based off of a comic, so it surely had plenty of content, right? Well, yes.
Unfortunately, content wasn't the problem. There were writers, and even the showrunner said he had things planned up through season five. The problem was that Netflix subscribers were just not interested and critics weren't impressed either with its convoluted nature. That led to the show getting the axe.
Dramedies are having their moment and shows like Ginny & Georgia are banking off that popularity. The series was released on Netflix in February, and there are already tons of fans. The show revolves around Georgia, who is the mother to Ginny and Austin. They move to Wellsbury to give her kids a better future.
Because of its popularity on Netflix and in the Twitter-sphere, Netflix just announced Ginny & Georgia has officially been renewed for season 2. The cast broke the exciting news with a cute little video on April 19, 2021. The newest season will be debuting on November 29, 2021.
Few series are as controversial as 13 Reasons Why. Despite the recent headlines that stated the show could be the cause of a rise in teen depression, the series was going strong until around season three. Fans loved it...until it started to shift it's view and push the limits a little further each episode.
Poor reception combined with controversy led Netflix to call the show quits. The fourth and final season released in June 2020. It unfortunately left a lot of questions unanswered with no hope that it'll get renewed like some other shows have in the past. Hopefully, this wasn't one of your favorite shows.
The Duchess is a British comedy-drama series on Netflix that premiered back in September 2020. If it succeeded, it certainly wouldn't be the first British comedy to make a name for itself on the platform. Unfortunately, British comedy-dramas can be rough to get started. Sometimes it just doesn't hit the audience right.
Many critics felt the series was mediocre at best with just a 63% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Metacritic was even more cruel. It has a weighted score of 35 out of 100. That's not good at all. The first season had just six episodes and was canceled in April 2021.
The Irregulars is a British crime drama series based on the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The Bake Street Irregulars work with Dr. Watson to stop supernatural forces. The first season aired in March 2021, and it felt like it just kinda...fizzled. The show didn't really do anything for audiences.
Netflix definitely noticed this. One month after the release, it was given the axe. It didn't get the viewership it needed to keep it going on the platform giant. Maybe the benchmarks are too high, especially since other shows have suffered this fate as well — here's looking at you, Tuca & Bertie!
Bridgerton premiered in December 2020 and became an absolute huge hit with Netflix. Fans flocked to it. We all love a good Shonda Rhimes show! This one was given a renewal every quickly, but not just for one season. It was given four total seasons. That should tell you how much everyone likes it.
With a diverse cast, there's no period drama on TV quite like it and viewers are loving it, clearly. The second season is headed our way on March 25th. The rest? Well, we're guessing they'll be debuting around the same time, but Netflix hasn't given release dates that far out.
Alice in Borderland is a Japanese science-fiction series based on the manga of the same name. The two protagonists of the story are trapped in an abandoned Tokyo and forced to participate in a series of life-threatening games. The first season aired in December 2020, and was well-received by viewers and critics alike. It was renewed just two weeks after its premiere.
With the success of Squid Games and other foreign shows, we might see an uptick of shows like this. The release date isn't exact, but many people and tabloids are stating the next season will drop in December 2022. That's great news for anyone that doesn't want to wait that long.
On My Block is a teen comedy-drama on Netflix set in Los Angeles about four friends and their life struggles. The first season aired back in 2018 and had 10 episodes. A second and third season premiered in 2019 and 2020. In January 2021, it was announced that the show would be ending after a fourth and final season.
With the popularity of other teen shows (like HBO's Euphoria) it's honestly surprising this one didn't keep going. The fourth (and final) season dropped on October 4th. We were glad to see that Netflix really gave On My Block a chance with a finale.
All of Us Are Dead is a Korean drama that follows zombies. Just as we thought that zombies were totally falling out of favor (thanks to Walking Dead lasting far too many seasons), this one pops up. Korean and Japanese series are really hot right now, so we'll just have to see where this one goes.
The show has gotten pretty decent ratings from critics, so Netflix execs are thinking that it'll get the same attention as Squid Games. That being said, that's some pretty tough benchmarks to reach. Only time will tell. Season one just released on January 28th, and there hasn't been a lot of news about a second season.
