Seize your girlfriends!
We’re returning to Serenity for extra margarita nights with finest pals Maddie, Dana Sue, and Helen.
On Wednesday, Netflix renewed Candy Magnolias for a fifth season, and lots of followers anxious that it took practically three months to announce it for the reason that Candy Magnolias Season 4 finale aired.

Nonetheless, the renewal appeared inevitable given the collection’ success on the streamer and a number of cliffhangers, particularly Maddie’s pending choice to maneuver to New York for a publishing job.
Whereas Candy Magnolias is loosely primarily based on Sherryl Woods’ e book collection, the Netflix model has dramatically modified.
The fifth season will give attention to how the Magnolias’ friendship weathers lengthy distance.
Let’s focus on the 5 issues that should occur when Candy Magnolias Season 5 returns.
Maddie Takes Manhattan and Places Her Desires First
After utilizing her advertising abilities to avoid wasting Serenity, Maddie acquired a publishing job provide in Manhattan. She hesitated as a result of her life, household, and finest pals have been in Serenity.
Whereas this arc differs considerably from the books, ladies should consider themselves when so typically they contemplate their husbands and their youngsters first.
It’s important for Maddie as a result of Cal and Erik solely lately grew to become enterprise companions at Sullivan’s.
But, he proved why he’s the precise reverse of Invoice Townsend by supporting her provide.
Whereas leaving Dana Sue and Helen might be difficult, watching these two go to Maddie in New York can be entertaining.
They might drink cosmos as an alternative of margaritas and discover Helen a designer marriage ceremony robe. We’re certain even when they’re not popping over on daily basis, they may proceed to help one another as they fulfill their goals.
These friendships final a lifetime.
Annie and Ty Discover a Compromise To Struggle For Their Objectives and Their Relationship
At first of the fourth season, Annie and Ty lastly grew to become a pair, pondering it was clean crusing. Nonetheless, younger love virtually at all times has issues.
Invoice’s demise difficult issues as a result of Ty virtually canceled his tour as a result of he felt accountable for issues at residence.
It was their first time separated, permitting for a time of self-reflection and progress. So typically, Annie had felt like an extension of Ty’s group or Dana’s daughter.
Throughout Candy Magnolias Season 4, she blossomed and realized what mattered to her, which is why getting accepted into that pictures program meant a lot to her.
Whereas I believe Ty solely needed Annie to accompany him on tour in Europe as a result of he missed her, asking her to postpone this system rubbed her the incorrect method.
They’re younger and studying that their goals might not at all times align.
Their relationship is just starting, and so they want time to reassess it. They’ll compromise, and perhaps Annie can journey with him till the autumn semester begins.
They imply an excessive amount of to one another to finish their relationship over one battle.
Helen and Erik Have a Huge Marriage ceremony and Construct Their Household
It took perpetually for Helen and Erik to reunite, however the payoff was value it.
That horny kiss within the storm stays one in every of my all-time favorites!
Whereas each had tried to be content material in different relationships, a number of crises confirmed them to take an opportunity on love.
They labored to open up extra, particularly Erik, about his goals and needs. Earlier than Candy Magnolias Season 4, we had by no means seen his residence or knew he dabbled in pottery.
These two have been nonetheless couple objectives. They’d smoking chemistry, lastly addressing a couple of elephants within the room, together with honoring his late spouse.
It appeared applicable that they grew to become engaged on the Candy Magnolias Season 4 finale with a candy vacation proposal.
Since we’ve seen the opposite two Magnolias get married, we should see an elaborate Helen and Erik marriage ceremony.
Heather Headley joked that the marriage have to be huge since Serenity has been ready for Helen to get married. “It ought to be big. I instructed the writers that if Helen had a marriage, she can be on the entrance of the church, and her prepare would nonetheless be within the automotive.”
That’s what I’m rooting for with the Magnolias and their households within the marriage ceremony. Simply assume how cute Katie can be as a flower woman.
That’s the opposite factor. Helen considers most of her nieces and nephews youngsters of her coronary heart, so has she stopped wanting her personal youngsters?
Nonetheless, Dion Johnstone, who performs Erik, hopes that Erik and Helen will begin their very own household and is keen to see if they’d strive IVF or adoption. That may be a incredible storyline for them.
Dana Sue and Ronnie Start Their New Companies
Dana Sue and Ronnie have been the couple most within the background final season. That always occurs to newly married {couples}.
I appreciated that the collection turned Dana Sue’s love of cooking into educating. She was incredible with the youngsters, main her to wish to open a cooking faculty.
After Invoice died, Ronnie despaired of getting no route, which led him to purchase a bike.
He didn’t crave wild occasions anymore however needed to point out vacationers landmarks, so he tried to begin an eco-bike enterprise.
It appeared odd that Ronnie’s enterprise accomplice is Dana’s previous boyfriend, Jeremy.
Hopefully, as they start these new enterprise ventures, we’ll see extra of them on-screen, and so they’ll proceed to debate their points.
Isaac Adjusts to Being A part of the Townsend Household
Isaac’s paternity secret grew to become public data earlier than he was prepared. It’s a standard trope of residing in a small city: gossip and betrayal.
Nobody labeled it whereas he grew to become acclimated to most of Maddie’s household. They might slowly develop nearer whereas changing into household.
Many followers have been upset that Ty left on tour after revealing the key. Ty and Isaac by no means processed the reveal collectively, or how Invoice’s betrayal and gaining one other brother affected them.
That might be key in Candy Magnolias Season 5. We don’t need an immediate completely satisfied household, even when the Townsends have at all times preferred Isaac.
It’s extra lifelike that Isaac might query why he missed out on these completely satisfied moments, or Ty might really feel his place because the oldest brother has been usurped, particularly when he notices how shut Kyle and Isaac are actually. Kyle grew to become Isaac’s wingman within the romance division, as solely youngsters can.
Hopefully, the collection will proceed to discover Isaac’s relationship with Michael and his rising consolation with himself.
We wish to see many different story arcs on Candy Magnolias Season 5, however these have been probably the most urgent.
Whereas we’re not loopy about political storylines, we’d additionally wish to see how Peggy, Helen, and the Magnolia Basis proceed to revive Serenity after the hurricane and the monetary disaster. A part of the appeal of Candy Magnolias is Serenity’s neighborhood connection.
