The comedy series The Four Seasons just dropped its second season on Netflix on May 28, 2026. Fans are already asking if the show will come back for more episodes. The show’s creator Tracey Wigfield recently talked about what lies ahead for the three couples and their yearly trips.
The first season ended with the sudden death of Nick, played by Steve Carell. Season two deals with the group learning to live without their friend while raising his baby. Critics have given the new season strong reviews, with an 85% score on Rotten Tomatoes. The show follows Kate (Tina Fey), Jack (Will Forte), Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver), Danny (Colman Domingo), Claude (Marco Calvani), and Ginny (Erika Henningsen) as they travel from New Jersey to Italy.
Wigfield Jokes About Running for 80 or 85 Seasons
In a recent interview with ScreenRant, Tracey Wigfield shared her honest thoughts about The Four Seasons season 3. She did not hold back her excitement for continuing the story. When asked how many seasons she sees for the show, she answered with a laugh.
“Just like 80 or 85! No, I don’t know. As many as they’d let us do for you! This is only the second season, so I think we’ll know when it feels like it’s coming to a natural stopping point. I would love to do another season, if we could.” – Tracey Wigfield
Her answer shows that Netflix has not given a green light for The Four Seasons season 3 yet. The streaming service usually waits to see how many people watch a new season before making a decision. Wigfield made it clear that the team knows when the show should end. She talked about knowing “when it feels like it’s coming to a natural stopping point.”
Season Two Brings Big Changes and Steve Carell’s Return
The Four Seasons season two moves away from the lighter tone of the first season. The characters deal with grief, depression, and learning to move forward after losing Nick. Tina Fey joked about killing off Steve Carell’s character in season one.
“Listen, spoiler alert, I killed him. Listen, huge mistake, but.” – Tina Fey
Despite Nick’s death, Steve Carell returns in season two through flashback scenes. This surprise move has brought more attention to the series. Will Forte also joked during a ComingSoon.net interview about the show having “an unrealistic amount of farts” and said the issue would be fixed in season three.
Forte and Fey used the interview to tease The Four Seasons season 3. Fey promised, “Season 3, more farts.” She added, “We’ll add it. Season 3 — Oops! All Farts.” This playful exchange shows the cast is ready and willing to return for more episodes.
Critics Praise Season Two But Renewal Still Uncertain
The Four Seasons season two has received mostly positive feedback from critics. The Guardian gave the season a perfect 5 out of 5 stars. The Daily Beast called it “A TV winner about, and for, grown-ups of an older age.”
Some reviewers pointed out that the second season feels less fun than the first. Variety wrote that season two “simply doesn’t have the whimsy of its predecessor.” IndieWire gave the season a C grade, saying the show tries to handle darker topics but does not go far enough.
Rotten Tomatoes shows the critics’ score at 85% based on early reviews. This is higher than season one’s 78% score. The show’s first season pulled in 24.4 million views during its first two weeks on Netflix. If season two matches or beats those numbers, Netflix will likely order The Four Seasons season 3.

Cast Availability Could Decide Show’s Future
The Four Seasons has a very busy group of actors. Colman Domingo has become a major movie star since the show started. He won an Emmy and earned an Oscar nomination for his role in Rustin. Tina Fey continues to write and produce multiple projects.
Getting all six main actors back for The Four Seasons season 3 could be hard. Wigfield knows this. She did not promise that more episodes will happen. But she made it clear that the writers’ room has ideas ready to go if Netflix says yes.
The season two finale reportedly sets up stories for a possible third season. The show follows the friends through different vacations each season. There are plenty of places left for them to visit. The group could travel to Asia, South America, or Africa in future episodes.
The Four Seasons seasons 1 and 2 are available to stream on Netflix worldwide.
