Tina Fey, Marco Calvani and Colman Domingo in season two of The Four Seasons In the last couple of years, Tina Fey’s heartwarming comedy The Four Seasons has become one of Netflix’s most popular new original series. The show recently premiered its second run of episodes, once again centring on a year in the lives of a tight-knit group of devoted friends. Netflix has already confirmed that the series – which stars Tina alongside the likes of Will Forte, Kerri Kenney-Silver and Oscar nominee Colman Domingo – has already been renewed for a third season, in which new addition David Tennant is expected to be boosted to the main cast. Fans are in for a bit of a wait until then, though, with seasons one and two debuting in May 2025 and May 2026, respectively. However, there’s been an addition to Netflix this week that could well help tide viewers over. The stars of Netflix's hit series The Four Seasons What you might not realise is that The Four Seasons is actually a reworking of a popular film from the early 1980s, directed and written by Alan Alda, who also stars as its lead. Earlier this week, the film The Four Seasons began streaming on Netflix UK, offering many viewers the chance to check out the source material that inspired Tina’s Emmy-nominated series. Co-creator Lang Fisher previously told Netflix that when she and Tina first began collaborating, the 30 Rock star “kept saying, ‘I want it to be like The Four Seasons’”. “Finally we were like, ’Should we just watch The Four Seasons?’ We did, and then we were like, ‘Oh, we should just do that movie’,” she recalled. In fact, Alan even had a small cameo in season one, sharing the screen with Tina and Colman. Tina enthused at the time: “He’s fantastic. His timing is as incredible as it ever was. He looks so handsome.” “Over the years I’ve been lucky enough to be able to tell Alan Alda in person how much I love the movie, and also [his Four Seasons co-star] Carol Burnett,” she added. “They both were kind of like, ‘That’s weird because you were 10. This movie wasn’t really intended for you.’ “Alan Alda was very generous in giving us his blessing early on to develop this. I think he was excited that it was coming back to life. It was obviously a project that was near and dear to him.” READ MORE: Our Guide To The 11 Must-See TV Shows And Films Coming To Netflix In August 2026 The Claws Are Out For Ricky Gervais' 'Abysmal' And 'Crude' New Netflix Series The Most Watched Film On Netflix In 2026 Probably Isn't What You're Thinking
