The Four Seasons Showrunners Explain THAT Major Character Death
8One of this season's most highly anticipated series is finally on Netflix, setting the bar for what adult comedy dramas can be. With its series premiere on May 2, the streaming platform has opened its doors to The Four Seasons, a half-hour series across eight episodes of six old friends taking what is supposed to be a relaxing weekend away... only to learn that one couple in the group is about to split. The three couples — Kate (Tina Fey) and Jack (Will Forte), Nick (Steve Carell) and Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver), and Danny (Colman Domingo) and Claude (Marco Calvani) — are shocked in the wake of the news, which shapes their lives for the next year.
The series follows the six friends through four vacations, opting to continue their longstanding tradition of quarterly getaways, where they must face the new reality of their dynamics, with old and new issues shaping the series' comedy and drama. Co-created by Fey, Lang Fisher, and Tracey Wigfield, the series is said to be a heartfelt love letter to long marriages and old friendships, and is based on the 1981 feature film of the same name.
In a recent interview with Collider's Tania Hussain, showrunners Wigfield and Lang unpack the emotional highs and comedic brilliance of their latest project. They dive into everything from Alan Alda’s poignant cameo and bold narrative choices, the show’s balance of humor and grief after a major character dies, and how that loss captures the complexities of long-term friendships and marriage. The duo also teases what fans might expect in a hopeful second season, including new relationships, emotional twists, and — of course — more unforgettable group trips.
