Here’s everything we know so far.
Tina Fey has finally returned to TV in The Four Seasons, a Netflix series based on the 1981 Alan Alda film, which she co-created with her longtime collaborators Tracey Wigfield and Lang Fisher. Fey stars alongside heavyweights like Steve Carrell, Will Forte, and Colman Domingo in an ensemble cast that follows six old friends on quarterly meet-ups as they deal with the shocking news that one couple is breaking up.
If you’ve binged all eight episodes of the first season that are streaming now, here’s what we know about a second season.
Will there be a season 2 of The Four Seasons?
The show was imagined as a limited series, but that’s never stopped a streamer from ordering more episodes. Still, Netflix has kept mum about a potential renewal and likely wouldn’t announce a second season until a few weeks’ worth of viewership numbers are in.
What would be the plot of The Four Seasons season 2?
Spoilers ahead for season 1 of The Four Seasons.
Season 1 of the limited series ends in both tragedy and uplift: After Steve Carrell’s Nick dies in a tragic car accident on New Year’s Eve, his ex-wife Anne (Kerri Kenney) extends an olive branch and invites his pregnant girlfriend Ginny (Erika Henningsen) into their found family. This plot significantly deviates from the original film (Nick survived and impregnated his younger girlfriend, so Anne’s acceptance isn’t a plot point), though the rest of the series covers the same ground as Alda’s film. If Netflix orders and Fey agrees to more episodes, season 2 would undoubtedly center on the relationship between Ginny and Anne as they navigate the arrival of Nick’s child and aim to forge a path forward without him.
The other two marriages of the series were also significant in season 1. Fey and Forte’s characters Kate and Jack entered counseling in the last quarter of the first season and end the finale still together, while Domingo’s Danny and his on-screen husband Claude’s (played by Marco Calvani) relationship expands with a threesome after fights over Danny’s lack of attention to his health. There’s plenty more relationship-based plot that can be mined for season 2 plots, alongside their ongoing grief over Nick’s death.
Who would be in the cast of The Four Seasons season 2?
If Netflix moves forward with a second season of The Four Seasons, it would be expected that the characters still alive at the end of the first season would return: Tina Fey’s Kate, Will Forte’s Jack, Colman Domingo’s Danny, Marco Calvani’s Claude, Kerry Kinney’s Anne, and Erika Henningsen’s Ginny. While Steve Carrell’s Nick died, there’s always the opportunity for characters to recur in flashbacks.
Season 2 would also provide an opportunity to expand the cast or provide more background to existing characters (like Kate and Jack’s daughter Beth and Nick and Anne’s daughter Lila, who are at school together and have clearly had some sort of falling out). If the writers implement a time jump, The Four Seasons could choose to follow a story arc related to Nick and Ginny’s as-yet unborn child.
We’ll stay tuned for updates from Netflix.
