November 5th 2024.
Netflix fans have received some bittersweet news about one of their favorite series. The beloved action-adventure mystery teen drama Outer Banks, which first premiered in 2020, has recently announced that it will be ending after its fifth season. This announcement has caused quite a stir among fans, with some even threatening to "riot" in response.
The series has gained a loyal following since its debut, with its captivating storyline set in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. It follows the journey of two groups of teenagers as they search for a lost treasure, featuring talented actors such as Chase Stokes, Madelyn Cline, and Madison Bailey. The latest season, which premiered last month, quickly gained 24 million views in just two weeks. However, fans were disappointed to learn that the season has been split into two parts, with the remaining episodes set to release on November 7th.
Despite the excitement for the upcoming episodes, fans were hit with the news that the fifth season will be the show's last. In a statement, the series creators and executive producers, Jonas Pate, Josh Pate, and Shannon Burke, expressed their mixed emotions about the ending. "Now, with a little sadness, but also excitement, we're putting Season Four behind us and turning to Season Five, in which we hope to bring our beloved Pogues home in the way we imagined and planned years ago," they shared. "Season Five will be our last season, and we think it will be our best yet. We hope you'll join us for one more paddle out to the surf break."
Many fans expressed their disappointment with the news, while others understood the reasoning behind wrapping up the series. One fan even joked that the final season better have the "wildest treasure hunt yet" or else they would "riot." Despite the mixed reactions, it's clear that fans are eagerly anticipating the final season and hoping for an unforgettable ending.
In their statement, the co-creators also reflected on their journey of bringing the show to life. They shared that they were inspired to write the series in 2017 when they stumbled upon a photograph of a group of teenagers on a beach at dusk. "At the time, seven years ago, it seemed impossible that we would really get to tell the whole five season story, but here we are, at the end of our fourth season, still chopping away," they revealed.
The fourth season was the longest and most challenging to produce, but the creators assure fans that it will also be the most rewarding. The season finale will be a feature-length episode, which they believe is their best and most powerful one yet. They hope that fans will agree and feel the same way when they watch it.
It's clear that the creators have always had a vision for the show's ending, as they shared in a past interview that they have known the final scene since the beginning of the series. Despite the disappointment of the show coming to an end, fans can still look forward to the upcoming episodes and the series finale.
Throughout its four seasons, Outer Banks has consistently ranked in the global Top 10 English TV List for a total of 27 weeks. As fans eagerly await the final season, they can continue to stream the show on Netflix.
