Netflix has yet to unveil The Ranch Season 4, but there are now rumors The Ranch Season 5 is not going to happen. Season 4 may put an end to Colt Bennett's (Ashton Kutcher) story, although Netflix has yet to confirm the news.
Netflix has yet to comment about The Ranch Season 5 cancellation issue as it is still about to release Season 4. But with the show's solid fan base, the support it guest, and its popularity, it is unimaginable if the series doesn't get renewed.
Fans received the greatest surprised of their lives when Season 4 was reportedly the final season of the series. Sam Elliott, who plays the role of Beau Bennett, even talked about the possible ending but gave fans hope about The Ranch Season 5.
"I committed to doing 'The Ranch' for five years. We're finishing up our fourth season, supposedly, that's the end of it, but if they choose to go again, I'll go again," Bennett told Deadline. "By the end of five years, it would be a hundred episodes. It's going to be 80 by the end of this year."
Elliott's statement seems to imply he is anchored to play Beau's role until The Ranch Season 5. The show has 20 episodes each season. So if they finish doing five seasons, they will end up with 100 episodes. But as the series is only on its fourth season and will end up with 80 episodes at the end of the year, he seems to give fans hope that there will be a fifth season.
According to Netflix Life, The Ranch is one of the most popular comedy series on Netflix. So to make its subscribers happy, it should keep the show and let Colt's story continue. The streaming service has been going on canceling-spree, giving its users the reason to cancel their subscription.
Netflix has been keeping its shows' ratings, so fans have no idea how it performs. But based on the support The Ranch receives, it has a solid fan base. The streaming service even earns a good result on every episode it airs, how fans quickly binge-watch each season, and "other binge-watching targets." As it already has a tight competition with the emergence of new streaming services today, it should keep the shows that give it a lot of viewers.
Netflix has been spending billions of dollars on its content. So it must renew its establish shows, The Ranch Season 5 included, and keep doing new episodes.
The only acceptable reason that there will be no The Ranch Season 5 is its producers and writers need to end its story. Also, if they don't have enough material to offer and new concept to tell, by then maybe the series really has to conclude with a proper ending.
