SPOILERS are forward for The 4 Seasons, now streaming with a Netflix subscription.
I feel a variety of us have discovered the newest of the greatest exhibits to binge watch on Netflix: Tina Fey’s The 4 Seasons miniseries! I devoured the comedy in simply a few sittings, and I already need extra. Following the ending, I want to speak about why I’m betting on a second season, and what I feel it may very well be about.
The 4 Seasons Ending Felt Like A Cliffhanger To Me
I used to be flabbergasted that the present killed off Steve Carell’s Nick, however the plot level allowed for the collection to actually finish on an emotional be aware that empowered the good friend group to understand what they’ve and never be so laborious on his girlfriend, Ginny. In reality, there’s a candy scene the place Nick’s ex-wife Anne will get to bond along with her and make amends. However the true jaw-dropper was when it was revealed that Ginny is pregnant with Nick’s child.
For the reason that final second of the present ends with Anne asserting the information earlier than a fast fade to black, I can’t assist however suppose the creators meant it to go away me wanting extra within the first place. And, I did a bit of digging on what they needed to say a couple of attainable Season 2. As co-creator Tracey Wigfield instructed TV Insider:
If we did one other season, we’d need the identical group of buddies, and we’d need Ginny to actually be tied in there as a result of she and Anne are going to have youngsters who’re siblings. And it simply provides us rather a lot to play with of their relationship.
So, they’re already excited about it, proper? Tina Fey additionally mentioned this:
I really feel like we type of don’t dare to dream but, however we did. Who is aware of. If we had been fortunate sufficient to do extra of those, we’d definitely all like to hang around once more.
You may undoubtedly inform Fey, Will Forte, Colman Domingo and so forth had been having a blast collectively, so why not do Season 2? However, I do know what you’re questioning, what may it’s about?
I Assume The Ending Leaves Room For Season 2 To Discover A New Theme For The Good friend Group
The 4 Seasons wasn’t as near The White Lotus as I assumed, whereas we look forward to Season 4 (however I additionally didn’t comprehend it was based mostly on one of many motion pictures from the 80s), and we knew it wouldn’t be an anthology, however i do suppose it may pull a bit of one thing from that collection. This season of the present I felt was actually centered on romantic relationships, and the way they will actually shift with time. As Nick and Anne’s relationship falls aside, the opposite two {couples} are actually examined concerning their very own partnerships, and there’s a operating dialogue round “working” at a wedding.
I feel since Ginny being pregnant is the large reveal within the ending, the following batch of 4 seasons between the good friend group may give attention to their relationship with parenthood and youngsters. Ginny shall be on the brink of be a mother for the primary time, whereas Anne shall be persevering with to mother or father her daughter now as a single mom. Then there’s Jack and Kate, who’ve a daughter as nicely, who didn’t play a task within the first season, and Danny and Claude, who particularly mentioned being joyful they don’t have children to date. I may see Ginny getting pregnant being an actual hearth starter for these parenting conversations to be mentioned, and it could, after all, put them in additional humorous conditions.
We’ll be looking out for information on a possible second season. Till then take a look at what different 2025 Netflix releases are on the way in which.
