Ginny & Georgia creator always planned to end show after 4 seasons – but now they might do 5
"I’m not Netflix – I can’t control whether or not there’s a season 5."
With Ginny & Georgia having already been renewed for season 4, fans can rest easy knowing that further new episodes are set to come. But now, series creator Sarah Lampert has confirmed that she's open to a fifth season of the series.
Despite initial plans to wrap up Ginny & Georgia with four seasons, Lampert told Deadline that there's plenty more stories to flesh out in the show but ultimately, she cannot control whether Netflix renews it for any more.
Speaking to Deadline, Lampert revealed: “I always thought it would end at season 4, just because I knew what the ending was, let’s say, but what we’re finding in the writers' room for this season is that there’s actually more there.
“And it would almost feel rushed to get to that ending for it to happen in four. I’m not Netflix. I can’t control whether or not there’s a season 5, but I would say what we discovered very early on in the season 4’s writers' room is, oh, there’s more story here.”
Also chatting about the season 4 writers' room of the show, Lampert said: “What’s beautiful about our writers' room, is it’s so alive.
"All of our writers are returning writers. You go into this writers' room and everyone just loves these characters. And I’ll go in and I’ll be really convinced of something, and I’ll be like, this is the way it has to be. We’re definitely doing it this way.
"And then by the end of the day, I’ll be like, I hate that thing I said before. You’ve totally seen a change, so it’s a very live wire writers' room. It’s ever-growing, ever morphing. So I I’m not trying to dodge the question, but I can’t say with honesty what is gonna come back in season 4."

The third season most definitely ended on quite the dramatic note, with Ginny pulling through and saving the day when it came to her mother's potential life sentence in prison.
There was also the small matter of some major interpersonal family drama and the blossoming romance between Ginny and Marcus, all things we're sure will be further fleshed out in season 4.
As for now, while there haven't been any season 5 plans confirmed just yet, we can certainly expect at least one more season of drama when it comes to following the mother-daughter duo.
