Spoilers for the Season 2 finale of The Four Seasons reveal that the Netflix comedy ends on a romantic cliffhanger for Anne, played by Kerri Kenney-Silver, after the group’s Italian vacation comes to an end. Instead of leaving with her friends, Anne decides to stay behind in Italy, marking a major emotional turn after years of upheaval following the death of her ex-husband Nick, played by Steve Carell, in Season 1. Nick’s death came after he impregnated another woman, adding another layer of complication to Anne’s personal journey.
In the finale episode, titled “Maratona,” Anne meets her new neighbor, Gianpiero, in the courtyard after he receives some of her mail. The character is played by David Tennant, whose casting was sparked by co-creator Tina Fey’s own idea. According to co-creator Tracey Wigfield, Fey immediately suggested finding “someone like David Tennant” for the role, and the team was thrilled when they were able to secure him. Tennant reportedly flew in, filmed the scene in a single day, and made a strong impression on set.
Wigfield explained that the creative team wanted the finale to leave Anne at a crossroads, continuing her arc of trying to rebuild her life and become “Anne 2.0” after a difficult period. That effort has not gone smoothly, making the possibility of a romantic new connection feel especially significant. The ending is designed to create anticipation for a potential Season 3 by introducing a fresh relationship dynamic that could open the door to more stories.
The Four Seasons Season 2, now streaming on Netflix, brings back Fey and Kenney-Silver alongside Will Forte, Colman Domingo, Marco Calvani, and Erika Henningsen. The finale’s closing moments shift the series from vacation comedy into a more personal and emotionally open direction, with Anne’s decision to stay in Italy suggesting that her next chapter may involve both self-discovery and romance.
