We've finally reached Atlanta season 4 release date, so don't be surprised if you start blinking like you just met Teddy Perkins. How can this show be back for its final season so shortly after its third (and very peculiar) run aired earlier this year? Well, folks, I guess that's what we call making up for lost time. Atlanta season 2 ended in May 2018, so this conclusion's speedy arrival might just be Donald Glover & co.'s way of saying "sorry we made you wait."
• Date — Atlanta season 4 episode 1 and 2 debuted yesterday (Thursday, Sept. 15) on FX and Friday (Sept. 16) on Hulu

After last season's often-surreal European adventure on tour, Earn (Glover), Al (Brian Tyree Henry), Darius (LaKeith Stanfield) and Van (Zazie Beetz) are back home in Atlanta. But, everything we've been hearing makes it seem like they've returned to a home they don't quite recognize.
Atlanta season 4 looks to finally pursue the stories that were put on pause last year. Earn seems to be trying the whole "fatherhood" thing out again, as the trailer has shown him with Van and Lottie. Al keeps ascending as Paper Boi, but as he goes higher, so goes his discomfort.
All in all, we hope these signs suggest a "back to basics" approach to Atlanta season 4. There were some great moments in the last season, but it was too scattered, even for us. The early word from critics is strong, though, as Atlanta season 4 has a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score.
Here's everything you need to know to watch Atlanta season 4 online. Plus, check out the trailer below:
