One of Netflix’s biggest sleeper hits is Sweet Magnolias, the drama that has just aired its fourth season as of last week, and it took up the #1 spot on the top 10 list for a while. Now, it’s been dethroned by not one but two shows, one that’s expected, one that isn’t.

I felt the same way about the show’s second season, which was a bright spot during the winter of 2022. However, by the third season, I wondered if the show had lost its charm. That season, the show shifted from a gentle soap opera to an almost unwatchable mess.

Last week brought a welcome treat for anyone with a Netflix subscription who adores romance, as fans were finally able to enjoy Sweet Magnolias Season 4 during the 2025 TV schedul

Netflix's beloved series "Sweet Magnolias" is back with another season. Here's what to know about Season 4, including when to tune in and what to expect.

If “Sweet Magnolias” fans are lucky enough to see a fifth season of the series, the next installment of episodes would likely explore Maddie’s new life in New York City (if she actually does decide to move forward with the new job). Wedding bells would likely be in the air for Helen and Erik, making that a focal point of a potential next season.

If the show were to be renewed for another season, it's likely we could see it as early as next year. The third season of Sweet Magnolias was released in July 2023, just a year and a half after season two's release in February 2022.

With season 4 ending on a cliffhanger about Maddie’s future in Serenity, Anderson told Tudum, “I deeply, deeply hope that we get a season 5 so we can answer [whether the Magnolias can survive Maddie moving to New York].”

The feel good-romance premiered season 4 on February 6th with 10 new episodes. And there was one thing above the rest that I hoped would get better. We’re talking about Dana Sue and her outfits. For three seasons her outfits have reminded me how much Hollywood doesn’t care to dress bigger bodies.
