“We thought we’d mourned the loss, and now it’s rising from the dead!” she said on Capital FM after Season 3 ended in 2023, presumed at the time to be the series finale.

“Our writers are literally Jedi Knights. They’re just incredible,” added Waddingham. “And we’ve got like a full room of real feminist men. So we’ve got all the fabulous women there, and the men that are in there, and I think you really see it in the scripts … it’s just so beautifully drawn.

Apple renewed the series for Season 4 last year, after co-creators Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt and Joe Kelly planned three seasons for the series.
