HBO's Emmy-winning comedy-drama Hacks is back with Season 4! With the release of Hacks, Episodes 1 and 2 on the premiere day itself, i.e., April 10, 2025, viewers are eager to know what happens next between the writer Ava Daniels and the stand-up comedian Deborah Vance.
Hacks Season 4 Episode 3 is set to be released on Thursday, April 17, 2025, a week after the season premiere. Interestingly, the release schedule this time is a little wonky. Episodes 3-6 will follow the regular weekly schedule, while Episodes 7 and 8 will drop together on May 15. However, the penultimate episode will be released on May 22, followed by the season finale on May 29, 2025.
Hacks Season 4, starring Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder, has been able to garner steady views and positive ratings in its debut week. It has already registered a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an 89% on Metacritic.
Viewers are loving the saucy professional banter between Deborah and Ava. In the previous season finale, Ava, to secure her position as a head writer for Deborah's late-night talk show, blackmails her. Even though Deborah is visibly proud of Ava finally taking a stand for herself, the power dynamic between them has changed. Their ever-changing equations are surely a treat to watch.

Streaming time details of Hacks Season 4 Episode 3
Hacks Season 4, Episodes 1 & 2: A brief recap
Hacks Season 4, Episode 1 follows the aftermath of the Season 3 finale. Previously, Ava Daniels (to save her dream job) blackmailed Deborah about her secretive affair with the network executive Bob Lipka. In Season 4, Episode 1, titled Big, Brave Girl, out of rage and disappointment, Deborah engineers a series of pranks on Ava to get her fired from her job, including sending her lingerie to their boss for a drug test. However, Deborah takes their enmity further as she boycotts Ava's jokes for the press conference.
Meanwhile, Ava, too, does not leave a chance to remind Deborah of her little secret at Bob's party, which spirals down to an ugly fight. Thankfully, during the late-night show's photoshoot, the two try to sort out their differences (at least for their professional improvement).
In Episode 2, titled Cover Girls, a coyote's howl wakes Deborah up in the middle of the night. Meanwhile, their grudges seem to continue as Deborah hires a psychic as a consulting producer. The three, of course, don't get along. Another fight breaks out between Ava and Deborah. Kayla, their manager, struggles to sort out Ava and Deborah's issues.
Ava and Deborah get a warning from Winnie, who asks them to work together without fighting and create a 'hit' show. When Winnie leaves, Deborah pretentiously hugs Ava (to prove to Winnie that they have sorted out their differences). Deborah finally agrees to hire Ava's selected writers. She also offers a writer's retreat in Las Vegas, which surprises Ava and the other writers.
Deborah's changed stances seem quite suspicious. Why did she suddenly plan a writers' retreat to Las Vegas? Is she planning to take revenge on Ava? Or has Winnie's harsh warning caused her to change her ways?
What to expect in Hacks Season 4 Episode 3?
In Hacks Season 4, Episode 3, which is scheduled to be released on April 17, 2025, viewers can see Deborah and Ava finally head for a writer's retreat in Las Vegas to mend their broken partnership. The retreat could offer a last chance for them to sort out their issues and work together towards their creative goals.
Viewers can expect intense emotional confrontations and emotional reunions in the upcoming episodes. Apart from that, the newly hired writers/characters could affect their already strained partnership while in the retreat. Can Deborah and Ava overcome their differences to make their late-night show successful?
