New to Netflix on May 1, 2025, The Four Seasonsmay sound like a swanky, star-studded rip-off of The White Lotus, but it’s a TV remake of the 1981 movie of the same name. Written, directed by, and starring Alan Alda, The Four Seasons (1981) is a bittersweet character study about three middle-aged couples navigating marriage and family as seen through four seasonal vacations.
