Review Scores (how we rate) Watch trailer →
The Four Seasons follows three long-time couples as they reunite throughout the year, each getaway revealing cracks, comforts, and choices that come with aging friendships and marriages.
He Said / She Said
“I really liked this show. The funny moments made me laugh out loud, the sad moments choked me up, and the tension had me clenching my teeth in sympathy. It handles serious topics with grace and warmth, and I didn’t expect to be as emotionally invested as I was.”
“The cast is the big draw here, Colman Domingo especially, though Tina Fey and Will Forte give him a real run. I liked it, but I’m slightly concerned all the relationships might unravel before the season is done.”
Critical reception (so far)
Early reactions highlight the strength of the ensemble cast and the show’s ability to balance humor with emotional honesty, particularly for viewers familiar with long-term relationships.
What it’s about
Each season brings the same group of friends together for a shared vacation, and each trip quietly reshapes how they see one another.
When Nick announces he may be ready for a major life change, long-standing dynamics begin to shift, forcing the group to confront love, loyalty, and what it means to grow older together.
Overall vibe
This is a comedy first, but one that isn’t afraid to sit in emotional discomfort. Humor softens the heavier moments, while warmth keeps the show grounded.
The tone is consistent across episodes: funny, reflective, and quietly observant, making it easy to settle into and keep watching.
Episode-by-episode (1–3)
Three long-time friend couples reunite for a vacation. What starts as familiar fun is complicated when Nick hints at a life change that may disrupt the group’s comfortable rhythm.
A surprise vow renewal adds pressure beneath the humor. Tension builds steadily toward an ending that says more through restraint than spectacle.
Their summer vacation introduces new dynamics, old friendships are tested, and long-standing resentments quietly surface.
