Back in 2021, it was announced the Western horror series was ending after four seasons. At that point, the show had developed a passionate fanbase thanks to its excellent LGBTQ+ representation, and Katherine Burrell actually spoke about that fan support in an exclusive interview with Looper in 2020. The “Wynonna Earp” fandom worked hard to get the show its 4th season, to which Burrell proclaimed, “It was just the most affirming thing, how much the show means to people and what a difference it’s made in people’s lives. And we felt that come at us in that gratitude. It was incredible.”

Of course, that kind of fan support only goes so far, but things were relatively wrapped up by the Season 4 finale, titled “Old Souls.” Much of the focus went on Nicole and Waverly’s wedding. Meanwhile, Wynonna debates whether she should leave town with Doc, and by the end, the two share a kiss and head off to some grand new adventure. It wraps most things up, but clearly, something big must materialize if it gets Wynonna and Doc to meet up with Nicole and Waverly again. 

Emily Andras has spoken before about plans for “Wynonna Earp” Season 5, but while that seems unlikely, fans will no doubt be delighted that the series is returning for a special. All four seasons are currently available to watch on Netflix.
