Overview

• Hulu launched Season 5 with three episodes on Sept. 9, with weekly Tuesday releases through an Oct. 28 finale for a 10-episode run.
• This season follows Charles, Oliver and Mabel probing the suspicious death of longtime doorman Lester, drawing them into a web linking old mob circles to modern billionaires.
• The show returns its focus to the Arconia and its history, emphasizing the leads’ comic chemistry that critics say remains the series’ strongest asset.
• Guest stars include Téa Leoni, Bobby Cannavale, Christoph Waltz, Renée Zellweger, Logan Lerman, Dianne Wiest, Beanie Feldstein, Keegan-Michael Key and others alongside returning cast.
• Showrunner John Hoffman says centering on Lester was intentional to tap “classical New York,” and he acknowledges the team is mindful about extending the premise only with fresh ideas.
