The Circle season 5: Is it renewed, canceled? Premiere date hopes

The Circle

Following today’s big season 4 finale, what can you see when it comes to The Circle season 5 over at Netflix? Is the show for sure coming back?

The first order of business within this article is rather simple: Making the good news abundantly clear! You will, after all, have a chance to see another season on the streaming service down the road. Back in the late summer of 2021, the streaming service went ahead and greenlit the show for seasons 4 and 5 at the same time. Why do it then? It gives them the ability to ramp up production on two seasons rather quickly, and it gives them flexibility as to when said seasons could air.

One of the reasonings why The Circle is so appealing to Netflix is the simple equation of content versus cost. It gives them a popular unscripted reality show that they can make for a pretty low price tag, at least compared to much of their scripted fare. The show uses the same set every season, and all they really need to do is pay the on-camera talent and also the cast and crew who take part. They also know that they’ll get a reasonably-solid amount of viewers for it.

As for when season 5 of The Circle will premiere, that’s going to be largely up to Netflix’s own discretion. We could conceive a world where a late 2022/early 2023 release is possible, but it’s going to be all about filling some gaps in their lineup. We wouldn’t be shocked if by the end of this year, we hear about a possible season 6 or even season 7, at least so long as the ratings stay solid. Unfortunately, Netflix does not reveal viewership data for any of their shows.
