With all the ups and downs of the Sweet Magnolias, fans are itching to know whether the popular series will be back for season 4. Here’s everything we know so far.
Is there going to be a season 4 of Sweet Magnolias?
Yes, Sweet Magnolias just got renewed for season 4! Netflix announced the major news in mid-October, just three months after the latest release of episodes on the streamer. What’s more, executive producer Sheryl J. Anderson shared with Tudum that the show is expected to pick up right where season 3 left off in the Sweet Magnolias’ friendship.
“The beating heart of this show is the deep relationship between these three amazing women, and how they sustain and celebrate each other,” she said about the upcoming new season. “Perhaps what excites me most about being able to bring Season 4 to life is that I get to collaborate again with our marvelous writers, cast and crew. I get to live in Serenity again, to soak up the strength and happiness of a town where people truly want the best for each other and are willing to put in the work necessary to make that happen.”
While the series just got greenlit for another season, it may be a while before a new round of episodes gets released. Despite the Writer’s Guild of America (WGA) striking a deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) after almost five months of striking in late September, SAG-AFTRA is still fighting for a chance to get a better contract in regards to residuals and better working conditions. Meaning: a large sector of actors in Hollywood are not working on new projects, leading to a delay for Sweet Magnolias coming back for season 4.

That is what this show is at the heart of it, and all that happens in between it … They’ve gone to hell and back with each other, and that type of relationship is very real and very relatable.
