Has Eva Lasting been renewed for Season 4? Here's what we know:

Renewed Or Cancelled? Eva Lasting is a Colombian teen show on Netflix. It has a slate of newcomers in the cast roster and presents a unique take on the teen romance genre. It comes alive in Colombia in the '70s and '80s, which was a socially and politically turbulent time for the country. If you've finished watching this one and are wondering whether it's been renewed or not, we have all the information you need. What is Eva Lasting about? Set in 1970s Colombia, the third season of Eva Lasting follows the evolving journey of Eva Samper, who continues her romantic entanglement with Camilo Granados, and the growing pains of their close-knit circle of high school friends. As Eva, Camilo, and their companions prepare to graduate and enter university life, new realities surface. Season 2 ended with lingering questions about Eva's sudden departure, her fractured friendship with Luisa, and Camilo's unresolved feelings, all of which explored across these final 10 episodes. We have extensive coverage on the site for Eva Lasting, including recaps and a full season 1 review. You can find those HERE! Has Eva Lasting been renewed for season 3? At the time of writing, Eva Lasting has not been renewed for season 4, nor will it be. The show was announced last year that it would be returning for a third and final season, with 10 episodes to conclude out the storyline. With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly. Other times, it can take months before a decision over a show's future is made so the fact Netflix made a decision on this one so quickly seems to indicate that there's a dedicated but relatively small audience for this one. Eva Lasting has had a pretty good reaction from critics and audiences alike though, with many enjoying the story and the characters. The series has had plenty of potential and ultimately bows out with a conclusive set of episodes to say goodbye to our characters. What we know about season 4 so far: Barely anything is known about season 4 at this point as Netflix have cancelled the show and it's not going to return. The only format we can realistically see this one come back would be in either a spin-off, sequel or prequel, but the likelihood of that is very remote. For now though, we'll have to enjoy the three seasons we've been given and look out for the next teen dramas dropping on Netflix! How do you feel seeing Eva Lasting return for a fourth season? What did you think of the show? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
