Co-showrunner Tracey Wigfield says the show is about “middle-aged people still figuring things out.”
By
Netflix’s “The Four Seasons” ended its first season with a funeral, a pregnancy reveal and enough midlife chaos to fill a therapy retreat.
The bittersweet dramedy was co-created by Tina Fey, Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield, and inspired by a 1981 movie of the same name. It’s sure to strike a chord with its dark humor, layered performances and honest look at long-term relationships and second acts.
Netflix hasn’t weighed in on the show’s future. But if the show does return for a second season, which couples are likely to make it out intact — and which are hanging by a thread?
We spoke with the cast and creators to break down what’s next for each pairing.
Danny and Claude

Of all the couples, Danny (Colman Domingo) and Claude (Marco Calvani) might have the deepest emotional well to draw from.
The two are in an open marriage, but secrets — namely Danny hiding a serious health condition and secretly taking a job in Austin — threaten to derail everything.
Marco Calvani, who plays Claude, tells TODAY.com he’s honored viewers see his character as the emotional anchor of the show — even if he didn’t always feel that way.
“Usually I’m described as eccentric or flamboyant — and Claude is all those things,” he told me, laughing. “But at the heart of it, Claude’s entire identity is tied to Danny. If Danny disappears, Claude fades. That fear fuels everything, even his joy.”
He also opened up about Claude’s feeling of being an outsider.
“Claude is the last one to join this friend group. He’s still trying to earn his place, and that’s something I think many immigrants can relate to — no matter how accepted you are, you always feel like you have to prove you deserve a seat at the table.”
By the finale, the couple seems on the cusp of healing — Danny even begins to believe Claude’s whimsical theory that Nick has become a butterfly.
Season 2 could deepen this emotional journey — if Danny can stay honest, and Claude can feel heard.
Kate and Jack

Kate (Tina Fey) and Jack (Will Forte) have a marriage held together by sarcasm, snide remarks, and years of habit — not exactly a recipe for longevity. Jack literally kisses another woman mid-season, and Kate spends most of the show either rolling her eyes or rolling solo.
But something shifts during a near-death moment on a frozen lake, when Jack pulls Kate to safety.
They agree to stay married — for now — at the end of the season.
Anne and Ginny

If “The Four Seasons” was bold enough to kill off a major character and still tee up a second season, then it’s certainly bold enough to build an emotional arc around two women who loved the same man … and are now, possibly, raising a baby together.
Anne banning Ginny from the funeral felt inevitable. But by the end of her chaotic eulogy, Anne breaks down and admits: “I just realized, I didn’t know him at all.”
That honesty — and the vulnerability that follows — crack something open for Anne and Ginny’s relationship.
“I really think Anne is finally free from the expectations she carried in her marriage,” Kenney-Silver tells TODAY.com. “That final dinner? It wasn’t just a goodbye to Nick — it was a new beginning.”
And Ginny’s pregnancy reveal gives the story fresh stakes. Could Anne become a mentor, a rival or something in between? Either way, this unlikely duo could become the emotional heart of season two.
Will There Be a Season 2 of ‘The Four Seasons’?
Netflix hasn’t officially renewed “The Four Seasons.”
“It’s a love story to all sorts of long relationships — not just romantic ones,” co-showrunner Tracey Wigfield says. “We wanted to show middle-aged people still figuring things out. Because that’s real.”
