The critically acclaimed series Hacks is set to return for its fifth and final season, with all ten episodes arriving in the UK this April on Sky and streaming service NOW.

The new season follows the aftermath of mistaken and unflattering news reports that wrongly claimed Deborah Vance had died. In response, Deborah and Ava head back to Las Vegas with renewed focus, determined to secure Deborah's legacy as a comedian.

Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder reprise their leading roles, joined once again by Paul W. Downs, Megan Stalter, Carl Clemons-Hopkins, Mark Indelicato, and Rose Abdoo. A wide range of guest stars also appear this season, including Robby Hoffman, Tony Goldwyn, Kaitlin Olson, Christopher McDonald, Jane Adams, Lauren Weedman, Poppy Liu, Johnny Sibilly, Luenell, Angela E. Gibbs, and Caitlin Reilly. Additional guest appearances come from Christopher Briney, Leslie Bibb, Cherry Jones, and Ann Dowd.

Hacks continues under the creative leadership of Paul W. Downs, Lucia Aniello, and Jen Statsky, who serve as creators and showrunners. The series is executive produced by Downs and Aniello through their Paulilu banner, Statsky via First Thought Productions, along with Michael Schur for Fremulon, David Miner for 3 Arts Entertainment, Morgan Sackett, Joe Mande, Aisha Muharrar, Nate Young, and Ashley Glazier. The show is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group.

The final season of Hacks will launch exclusively in the UK this April on Sky and NOW.
