'Never Have I Ever' Gets 4th And Final Season On Netflix

It's been two years since the first season of the comedy-drama "Never Have I Ever" debuted on Netflix. Fans heartily received its offerings which consisted of ten episodes that originally aired on April 27, 2020.

Since then, the series has garnered critical acclaim not only for its enthralling cast delivery but also for being a landmark event for South Asian representation in Hollywood and shattering prejudices about the South Asians.

"Never Have I Ever" also received criticism from critics who stated that some scenes from the show were stereotypical. However, such negative reviews did not stop the streaming service from renewing the show for a second season.

With season two already concluded and season three set to debut in the summer of 2022, Netflix has gone ahead to greenlight the production of the show's fourth and final season.

Fans heard of the news from co-creators Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher. The duo jointly announced the information in a recent tweet via Kaling's account.

"Hey Crickets, we've got some morning announcements for you: Season 3 of Never Have I Ever is gonna drop this summer! Plus, we've just been renewed for a fourth and final season, which we are absolutely thrilled about," read the tweet.

"We can't wait to reveal all the steamy romance and hilarious adventures we have in store for you. Thanks to all our fans for your support – especially you #Bevi and #Daxton stans. We love you!"

In another announcement, Netflix also shared its excitement at renewing the season. "We are thrilled to have two more seasons of 'Never Have I Ever,'" said a spokesperson from the streaming service. "It's everything we want in a Netflix comedy series: authentic, specific, funny, and full of heart.

Following Kaling and Fisher's announcement on Twitter, "Never Have I Ever" fans trooped to the comment section to write their views about the show's renewal.

"Thank you for another series with a strong female lead. thank you for the laughs & letting us feel it is ok to be unapologetically yourself," one follower said. "The characters you write, the stories you create have helped me & other women gain confidence & feel better about ourselves."

Another fan said: "Incredibly, deeply obsessed with everything that you and lang create. cannot wait to see where Devi's journey goes and all the steamy romance and adventures that come along the way."

Multiple Twitter users also expressed mixed emotions about the show coming to an end. In the meantime, fans are anticipating the show's third installment, which will premiere later this year.

The comedy series features Maitreyi Ramakrishnan in a leading role as Devi, a biracial youngster with Asian blood who attempts to juggle the rigors of her family and personal life amidst her personal anguish and love troubles.

In addition to Ramakrishnan, Poorna Jagannathan, Richa Moorjani, Jaren Lewison, Darren Barnet, John McEnroeLee Rodriguez, and Ramona Young all starred in the previous installments of the show.

Although season three of the show is already in its post-production phase, fans are yet to receive any other extra details from the showrunners. However, they hope its storyline will resolve several tense relationships and explore how Devi learns to embrace her ancestry and deal with her demons.

While attending the red carpet of her new animation flick, Disney-Pixar's "Turning Red," the actress revealed her passion for the show to news sources.

"I can't believe three seasons has gone by. That show is so close to my heart, and I can't believe it's three seasons old. It's growing up before my eyes this little child," Ramakrishnan said. "Devi goes through it a lot, per usual; that's no surprise. I tried recapping the season, and it took me like a solid hour of non-stop talking."

Although it would be a while before the fourth season premieres, fans are already preparing their minds to say a final goodbye.
