Last week, Sharon and I finished watching season five of Hacks. We finished season four in June of 2025 and the first three seasons in February of 2025.Hacks is a dark comedy drama television series created by Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs, and Jen Statsky. The series concluded on May 28, 2026, after five seasons and 47 episodes.
It follows Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), a stand-up comedian, and her comedy writer Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), as they navigate the evolving dynamics of their professional partnership and personal lives within the contemporary comedy industry.
Although season five wanders through a bunch of chaotic storylines that had me wondering where it was going, they landed the plane over the last two episodes. I have really enjoyed the series. I recommend it.
I continue to be amazed that Hannah Einbinder is the daughter of original Saturday Night Live cast member Laraine Newman. She is very good in the series. Einbinder won an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in Hacks Season 4. It will be interesting to see what she does next.
