Netflix’s new comedy-drama The Four Seasons just dropped, and it’s already sparking buzz for its all-star cast and a storyline that turns a classic on its head. But what really happens when six long-time friends gather for four vacations-and one couple suddenly calls it quits?
Created by Tina Fey, Lang Fisher, and Tracey Wigfield, this eight-episode miniseries adapts Alan Alda’s 1981 film into a modern, laugh-out-loud exploration of friendship and love. The show stars Tina Fey as Kate, Will Forte as her husband Jack, Steve Carell as Nick, Kerri Kenney-Silver as Anne, Colman Domingo as Danny, and Marco Calvani as Claude. Erika Henningsen also joins the ensemble, with guest appearances from Julia Lester and even Alan Alda himself
Each episode follows the group through a different seasonal getaway-from lakeside retreats to ski trips-where old wounds and new secrets surface. The chemistry between Fey and Carell (reuniting after Date Night) is a highlight, but it’s the group dynamic and sharp writing that keep viewers hooked
Filmed across picturesque locations in New York and Puerto Rico, The Four Seasons is streaming now on Netflix. If you thought you knew what happens when friends vacation together, think again-this series delivers surprises you won’t see coming
