The Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard saga, Breeders, is officially coming to an end with its fourth season, which has been announced as the final season. This season will see Paul and Ally facing their biggest parenting challenge while having to support the increasingly troubled Jim and Jackie.

Breeders is set to premiere on FX on Monday, July 31, 2023, at 10 pm ET/9 pm CT with its first two episodes. The season will consist of 10 episodes, and new episodes will be aired every subsequent week at the same time. The 10-episode season will also be made available to stream on the Hulu streaming platform.


Is Breeders really ending? Statement of renewal for season 4

It is almost time to bid adieu to the FX dark comedy, Breeders. While it is true that the series has been renewed for a fourth season, this will be the end of the show. FX’s President of Original Programming, Nick Grad, said in a statement regarding the renewal of the series:

“Breeders has given us the special opportunity to watch the Worsley family grow with each season and FX is thrilled to order a fourth season that will bring the next chapter of this hilarious yet brutally honest take on being a parent in today’s world. Our thanks to creators Simon Blackwell, Chris Addison and Martin Freeman, the entire creative team, Daisy and the cast, the crew and everyone at Avalon, FX Productions and Sky. Their efforts are what guide and sustain Breeders and we are happy to be part of that extended family.”

Season 4 is produced by Avalon and FX Productions with Simon Blackwell as the showrunner, who also created the comedy with Chris Addison and Martin Freeman himself.


About the fourth and final season of the FX dark family comedy

It has been five years since we last saw the Worsley family in the third season of the FX series. Paul and Ally were on the verge of separating, while Jim and Jackie were in the middle of turmoil. On the other hand, Luke found a new relationship, and Ava mended an old one. Season four will take off from here and give us more insights into what happens in the lives of the protagonists of the show. The official description of Breeders season 4 is as follows:

“Season 4 of Breeders brings the biggest parenting challenge that Paul and Ally have ever faced, as 18-year-old Luke (Oscar Kennedy) drops a bombshell at Christmas dinner that will change everyone’s lives forever. No longer in Luke’s shadow, 16-year-old Ava (Zoë Athena) experiences her own bombshell moment as she meets and immediately falls for the charismatic Holly (Jessie Williams). Paul and Ally continue to try, fail and try again as they face these latest parenting challenges, while also having to support the increasingly troubled Jim and Jackie.”

The fourth and final season is exciting and much-anticipated, as it will feature some major changes. Luke and Ava will reportedly be played by new actors. Actor Oscar Kennedy will be slipping into the role of Luke, who is now 18 years old, and 16-year-old Ava will be played by actor Zoë Athena, who is a newcomer in the industry. Moreover, it also looks like there will be a potential new addition to the family that will change the dynamics of the family.
