Dust off your snark and warm up that side-eye because Hacks is strutting back onto our screens¡ªand it is not here to play nice. Season 4 officially drops on April 10, 2025, and Max is serving up not one, but two back-to-back episodes to get the ball rolling. Huzzah, indeed!
The Emmy-winning dramedy returns with the iconic Jean Smart as savage stand-up legend Deborah Vance, and Hannah Einbinder as her millennial mess of a writer, Ava Daniels. If you thought the last season had spicy tension, buckle in¡ªbecause this time they are trying to launch a late-night show together. Yes, two queens. One mic. Endless drama.
Word on the street (and by that, we mean the official season logline) is that things are getting ¡°tense¡± between the duo as they attempt to make late-night history. Deborah wants legacy. Ava wants her voice heard. The egos are as loud as the laugh track, and frankly, we are here for it.
The premiere drops at 6 pm PT / 9 pm ET on April 10 in the US. Internationally, it will hit screens in the wee hours of April 11, depending on your timezone. From London¡¯s 2 am BST binge to India¡¯s 6:30 am coffee-and-Hacks combo, global fans are prepped to tune in.
As for the episode one runtime¡ªexpect a snappy 30 minutes of razor-sharp dialogue and emotional gut punches. Just enough to leave you begging for episode three.
Weekly release schedule? Sorted. New episodes hit Max every Thursday until May 29, with a cheeky two-episode drop on May 15. A full 10-episode season of drama, sarcasm, and fragile showbiz egos? We are feasting.
Do not forget¡ªyou will need a Max subscription to watch. Prices start at $9.99/month (ads) or $16.99/month (ad-free). Think of it as your weekly therapy session, just with more glitter and yelling.
So set those alarms, grab your popcorn, and prepare to witness Deborah and Ava attempt the impossible¡ªsharing the spotlight.
