The Boroughs creators address its 3-Season plan amid high RT score

Produced by Stranger Things’ Duffer Brothers, The Boroughs is Netflix’s newest show which premiered on the streaming platform on May 21, 2026. It has been confirmed for three seasons, though it depends on certain factors.

Speaking with ScreenRant, The Boroughs’ creators revealed their plans for the show’s three-season arc. One of the factors includes whether the cast would like to return again, including the viewership numbers. Co-creator Addis revealed, “It really just depends on what people do and if they like it. It’s really as simple as the cast all love each other and we like making the show and we love Albuquerque.”

“And if we get to go back and do it again, we know what’s going to happen. But we don’t know what’s going to happen in the next few days, so we’ll see. I hope people like it.”
