Even though I love the show, 4 seasons is a good number of seasons without completely jumping the shark.

I’m happy it’s back but the season 3 finale felt like a series finale

Baby Billy spin-off would be better at this point

Nah. He's a fun character but we need to stop normalizing stretching everything and it's mother into a "universe" or a gazillion spin offs.

Four seasons feels about right for Righteous Gemstones. That's something McBride has done really well in recent years, knowing when to end a show before it jumps the shark. Just like Vice Principals is perfect as a two season deal.

Hoping he continues producing this kind of content.

That's about right. You can only have them learn a valuable lesson only to go right back to what they always do so many times

Baby Billy, Aunt Tiff, and the baby start doing international ministry trips where each season they go to a new crappy country to expand the church. Start off with him working with an African tribe and it writes itself.

We are all in agreement that Judy is by far the funniest character of this ensemble, correct?

4 is prob just right, if not a little too much... Could have ended with S3's finale and been perfectly fine.

Hopefully they can squeeze one more out of it and it not completely jump the shark.

Can't remember where I read or heard this at, but she apparently is given free reign to adlib. Supposedly quite a bit of shite she comes up with is off the cuff

Hopefully it doesn’t take too long before that crew brings something else to HBO.
