The highly anticipated fifth and final season of "Hacks" is set to premiere on April 9, 2026. This 10-episode season will bring back stars Jean Smart as Deborah Vance and Hannah Einbinder as Ava Daniels, continuing their professional and personal journey.
The narrative picks up in the aftermath of sensationalized and inaccurate news reports of Deborah Vance's passing. Returning to Las Vegas, Vance and Daniels are more driven than ever to solidify Vance's enduring legacy as a pioneering comedian.
Complications arise as Vance faces a severe contractual restriction: she is legally barred from performing any jokes or risk imprisonment. This legal tightrope walk sets the stage for Vance's ambitious comeback, as she and Ava work to reclaim the spotlight and ensure Vance's indelible mark on comedy history.
The season's finale is scheduled for May 28, 2026, with several key dates including additional episodes dropping on April 30 and May 7.
