Hacks on Stan is a critically acclaimed comedy with a top-tier cast, and it will soon be back for season four.
It's hardly surprising to hear that the brilliant comedy series has been renewed but it is exciting nonetheless. Least of all because it's always a time to celebrate when shows about complex female characters continue to get made and find big audiences.
On the announcement of the show's renewal for a fourth season, Sarah Aubrey, head of Max original programming said in an official statement: "The creative team behind this singular show is not only brilliant but also a joy to work with. We couldn’t be happier to give viewers another season with Deborah, Ava, and the rest of the Hacks family."
And we couldn't be happier to receive it.
So, looking ahead to season four of Hacks it must be said there's a lot to unpack after that ending in season three.
Let's dig in and uncover everything we know about this groundbreaking show and where it might head for its next instalment.
What is Hacks about?
We presume you're here because you live and breathe Deborah Vance's every waking move. However, if you're a Hacks newbie, and you have yet to watch the first three seasons of the show streaming on Stan, you're welcome here and we're going to get you up to speed.
The name Hacks is a little misleading as it refers to 'hack comedy' which is a term in comedy circles given to jokes that are less refined and ahem, unoriginal. The irony is, Hacks is anything but hack comedy with this show presenting some of the best, most original comedy writing we've ever seen.
Who is in the Hacks cast?
The brilliance of Hacks doesn't come down to any one factor for it is truly a culmination of incredible talent stemming from the words written in the script, the way they are brought to life by the actors, and how the Hacks world is stylised and shot for the screen.
