Hacks Renewed for 5th Season, Final Episodes in the Works

0:00I'm Cory with the story, bringing you the latest in entertainment and pop culture. Great news for fans of the Emmy-winning comedy Hacks. The show star and Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder has been officially renewed for a fifth season on HBO. This announcement dropped right before the season 4 finale, where the characters wrapped up some big travels and drama. The lead celebrated the pickup with a fun video on Instagram, sharing their excitement for more episodes. Key cast members like Paul W. Downs, Megan Stalter, Carl Clemens, Hopkins, Mark and Delicado, and Rose Abdu are all set to return. Fans won't be shocked by this, since the creators always envisioned a five-season run. They told outlets last year about their plans to keep the quality high without stretching things out. Production kicked off back in September 2025, and HBO has teased it as the final season with some first-look photos. The team knows their in-game story from way back in 2015, but they're still figuring out exactly how many episodes it might need.

1:00With the friendship between the leads staying strong offscreen too, we're in for more laughs as Hacks heads toward its big finish.
