Netflix Orders Season 4 of Sweet Magnolias; Adult Swim to Premiere Season 12 of Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Netflix announced Sweet Magnolias has been renewed for a fourth season. Across its three seasons, Sweet Magnolias has been in the Global Top 10 for 10 weeks in over 60 countries. Season 3 premiered on Netflix on July 20, 2023 and debuted at #1. Sheryl J. Anderson (Ties That Bind) returns as showrunner and executive producer; Dan Paulson (Chesapeake Shores), whose Daniel L. Paulson Productions is producing, also returns as an executive producer. Sweet Magnolias is based on the popular series of novels published by MIRA Books, an imprint of Harlequin, by New York Times best-selling author Sherryl Woods, who also serves as an executive producer on the series. Sweet Magnolias follows lifelong best friends Maddie (JoAnna Garcia Swisher), Dana Sue (Brooke Elliott), and Helen (Heather Headley) as they juggle relationships, family, and careers in the charming small town of Serenity, SC. 10 x 50 minute episodes will air.
The Season 4 renewal of Sweet Magnolias joins a growing lineup of comfort/lean back and lighter TV dramas at Netflix that includes original hits like Virgin River (renewed for Season 6), The Lincoln Lawyer (renewed for Season 3), Ginny & Georgia (renewed for Seasons 3 and 4), licensed hits such as Suits, and fan-favorites like Firefly Lane and the anthology Dolly Parton's Heartstrings.
One of Adult Swim's first original series, Aqua Teen Hunger Force will make its long-awaited return for a 12th season on Sunday, November 26 at 11:30pm ET/PT. From creators Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro, new episodes of the quarter-hour comedy that follows the fast-food trio of Master Shake, Frylock and Meatwad will feature guest appearances from Emmy(R) winner Eric Bauza, Emmy winner Brian Cox, Dan Fogler, Emmy winner Maurice LaMarche, and Gary Anthony Williams. Coming off last year's original film Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm, the new season marks the return of stars Carey Means as Frylock, Dana Snyder as Master Shake, and co-creator Willis as Meatwad and Carl. Aqua Teen Hunger Force Season 12 is written, produced, and directed by Maiellaro and Willis.
