Outer Banks is said to be the show of 2023 because of how much popularity it got after the third season. This show is a Netflix original that first came out in April 2020. As many Outer Banks fans know, part one of this new season will come out on October 10th and part two on November 7th. This will be a two-part series including 5 episodes each.
Based in Outer Banks, North Carolina, Outer Banks is about five teenagers on a 400 million-dollar gold hunt. These teenagers’ names are John B, JJ, Pope, Kiara, and Sarah. Their small town is separated by what they call Kooks and Pogues. Sarah and Kiara are kooks because their families are rich, but they always hang out with the Pogues. Sarah’s dad, Ward Cameron, had become upset with Sarah for leaving to go and find gold, so he decided to chase after them. While following them he decided that he wanted the gold all for himself and started to fight his way to find it first. This caused a huge battle between the Pogues and Ward Cameron. At the end of season 3, the Pogues are about to go on a new mission to locate the ship of Edward Teach, the pirate also known as Blackbeard.
Netflix posted a video on YouTube two weeks ago showing a teaser for this upcoming season. The video starts with John B saying, “We finally did it. We finally found the gold.” Then, it proceeds to show all the Pogues hanging out, but then John B says, “That’s where the story should’ve ended. But it’s really just the beginning.” According to Today News, Netflix said that season 4 will go in time and have the Pogues back home at the Outer Banks. There, they will return to their normal lives and open up a shop which ends up putting them at some financial setbacks. This will lead to them taking up the offer to search for the treasure of Blackbeard. The teaser says, “The adventure comes home,” which suggests they will search for this treasure locally.
Avery Tucker, a sophomore here at Tunstall High School, had a strong opinion on what season 4 will be like. When asked what she was most excited about for this upcoming season, she said it was one of the main characters, JJ. Tucker is a huge JJ fan and has been ever since season 1. Tucker predicted that by the end of season 4, Sarah and John B will get married and have a child. When asked what she thought would happen in the show, in general, she stated, “No more kooks and Pogues– they are all equal.”
The producers of Outer Banks have worked really hard to make another great season for us. Many people, including myself, are excited to see what season 4 is going to be like. Look out for season 4 on October 10th and November 7th!
