Netflix has just locked in a return date for one of its buzziest series, The Four Seasons, and fans of high-end vacation drama won't want to miss it. Season 2 drops on May 28, giving subscribers a fresh batch of tension, laughs, and stunning locales just in time for summer.
Often compared to HBO's The White Lotus, this show follows a group of suburban couples who take seasonal getaways together. When one couple splits, the dynamic shifts dramatically—especially when one half brings a much younger partner along. Think sun-soaked jealousy, sharp dialogue, and plenty of awkward dinners.
A Stellar Cast Returns—With One Notable Absence
The ensemble remains a major draw. Tina Fey, Colman Domingo, Will Forte, and others are back for Season 2. However, Steve Carell will not reprise his role, marking the only core cast departure. Fey also co-wrote the series alongside Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield, ensuring the same witty, biting tone that made Season 1 a hit.
Season 1 earned a 78% critics' score and 63% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, proving it resonated with both reviewers and viewers. While plot details for the new season remain under wraps, the foundation is set for more messy, compelling vacation drama.
Netflix's Big Year Continues
2026 has been massive for Netflix, with hits like War Machine (starring Alan Ritchson) and Apex (featuring Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton) dominating charts. Apex sparked some controversy after fans review-bombed it on Rotten Tomatoes over its finale, but it still holds the #1 spot after a week. Meanwhile, The Four Seasons stands out as a rare Netflix series that actually got a second season—something the platform isn't always known for.

How to Watch

Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to the premiere. For now, mark your calendars and prepare for another round of vacation drama that will have you laughing, cringing, and maybe even planning your own trip.
