Girls5eva has been canceled again, and this time by Netflix, Deadline has confirmed.
The musical comedy will not have a fourth season on the streamer, marking the second time the show has been canceled.
Girls5eva originally premiered on Peacock in 2021. The show got a second season in 2022 but was dropped by the NBCUniversal streamer after two seasons before Netflix rescued it for a third season.
Season 3 of the comedy premiered in March 2024.
Netflix’s confirmation that Girls5eva was not moving forward with another season comes after star Busy Philipps addressed the future of the series on her podcast.
“[Girls5Eva is] dead.I’m just saying it because fuck it. If Netflix won’t, I will,” Philipps said on Doing Her Best. “I guess not enough people watched it or watched it the way that counts. I don’t know. I actually just don’t know.”

She continued, “To be fair, Netflix isn’t saying that it’s dead, but they don’t also have to say anything about it because the way that the deal was structured when it went to Peacock was just for the season, for that third season. And so there’s no time limit. Normally when you do a TV show, there’s a contract and you have to let the actors know by a certain date or they are free to go pursue other things in first position. But we didn’t have that deal structured. I know that all of us would kill to do more in any capacity, like a movie like they did with Kimmy Schmidt would be incredible, or a fourth and final season. But I just think it’s not, probably.”
