What Hannah Einbinder confirmed
In a Collider interview listing published March 16, 2026, Einbinder confirmed that season 5 would end the series. “So yeah, it is the last season, okay?” she said. The listing says interviewer Steve Weintraub spoke with her at South by Southwest while her film Seekers of Infinite Love was debuting there. Collider’s interview listing also quotes Einbinder describing the season: “It’s the Hacks special, baby. You’re going to laugh. You’re going to cry. There’s going to be wigs, and the girls are there. It’s going to be great.”
