M. Night Shyamalan announced that "Servant" has been renewed for its fourth and final season on Apple TV+.
The news of "Servant" being renewed for its final season comes only a month before its third season begins airing. Apple has already shared a first-look trailer of what's in store for the upcoming season.
Writer, director, and showrunner M. Night Shymalan shared the news via Twitter, stating that the original plan was for 40 episodes, but it was never guaranteed. The thriller has already aired 20 of its episodes, which can be viewed with an Apple TV+ subscription.
Shyamalan says that the show also acts as a vehicle for the next generation of writers and directors. Each episode features different directors and writers to bring out specific elements of each individual's approach. Even Shyamalan's daughters helped with season 3.
Happy to announce (in my very fitting Jericho t-shirt) that @Servant is greenlit for its 4th & final season. I set the goal to tell 1 story in 40 episodes knowing there was no guarantee we would achieve it. It was a huge risk. Thanks @AppleTVPlus & #Servant cast, crew, & fans. pic.twitter.com/fv9nviVz53

While I do watch the show with my wife, and we'll watch as soon as S3 airs, I've gotta say that my wife has been more interested in this than I have.
I mean, it's not a BAD show per se, but on some level it just feels like everyone in the show is somehow calmly hysterical. I'm able to suspend disbelief for almost everything in the show except people's emotional reactions - sometimes they're over the top, sometimes they're too subdued.
But hey, I'm grateful for something my wife and I can watch together without one of us trying to slit our wrists from watching what the other likes.
Definitely looking forward to seeing where this goes. Takes some patience initially, but worth it imo. Also, the Apple pizza promotion was pretty cool.
