When Will The Four Seasons Premiere On Netflix?

A Vacation Comedy That Hits Close to Home

Inspired by the 1981 feature film of the same name, The Four Seasons follows three couples who set out for a relaxing weekend retreat—only to have their peaceful plans thrown into turmoil when one couple announces they’re calling it quits.

What unfolds is a year-long journey told across four vacations, as the ripple effect of that surprise breakup stirs up buried tensions, awkward truths, and tender moments that test the limits of long marriages and lifelong friendships.
