I first discovered Schitt’s Creek last year. With four seasons readily available to stream, I dove in and quickly found myself binge-watching in a delightful haze. Honestly, it had been ages since I felt such a strong connection to a show—it’s been a long time since I fell head over heels for something like I did with Schitt’s Creek.
When Season 4 dropped, I was both excited and a bit nervous. Would it maintain its quirky edge? Could it avoid becoming bland despite its growing popularity? And, perhaps most importantly, would the character of David still be as irresistibly charming? Spoiler alert: the answer to all of those questions is an emphatic YES.
If you haven’t yet embarked on the hilarious journey that is Schitt’s Creek, here’s the premise: The show follows the Rose family, who are stripped of their lavish lifestyle after their video store empire collapses. In a swift turn of fate, they lose nearly all their possessions, save for an obscure town called Schitt’s Creek, which patriarch Johnny Rose (played by the incredibly talented Eugene Harris) had bought as a joke years prior. With nowhere else to turn, the family reluctantly relocates to Schitt’s Creek and settles into the town’s only motel, forming unexpected friendships with an array of eccentric locals, from the awkward Roland to the sarcastic Stevie, and the endearing Patrick.
If you’re not watching this gem yet, I implore you to do so immediately. If you are, then you can surely relate to the admiration I feel. Here are just a few more reasons why Schitt’s Creek is truly a must-watch. (Caution: slight spoilers ahead, so go watch right now!):
- The Characters’ Humanity Shines Through
The ensemble cast continues to be wonderfully eccentric, but Season 4 adds layers of depth to their personalities. Unlikely friendships bloom, and themes of unrequited love are explored. David and Alexis emerge as one of the best sibling duos on television, while Moira’s maternal instincts come to the forefront, resulting in an even more lovable group of oddballs. - Romance That’s Actually Sweet
Anyone who claims romance is dead clearly hasn’t experienced the charm of an acoustic rendition of Tina Turner’s “Simply the Best” sung by David’s partner, Patrick. Excuse me while I swoon over this adorable moment! - David is More Delightful Than Ever
Let me reiterate: David is EVERYTHING! The charm, the facial expressions, the snark—it’s all perfection. And his eclectic collection of sweaters? Pure icing on the cake. Just when I think my affinity for David can’t grow any stronger, he does something so heartwarming that it nearly sends me over the edge. - Alexis is the Ultimate Lady Boss
This season, Alexis evolves from her self-centered ways, revealing a more vulnerable side while still nailing her fashion game. She exemplifies how to be a fierce lady boss, all while looking fabulous—proving that we can all strive to be as chic as her, even in our yoga pants. - Real AF Friendship Between Stevie and David
When you pair two snarky, quick-witted former lovers who transition into an incredible friendship, you get the unforgettable duo of Stevie and David. Whether they’re dubbed Stevid or Davevie, their dynamic is simply perfect. - Witty Banter is Abundant
Throughout it all, the show is rich with clever comebacks and razor-sharp humor, ensuring that you’ll be laughing out loud at every turn.
Schitt’s Creek airs on POP TV and became available on Netflix in October 2018, so you can binge all four seasons whenever you want. If you don’t have POP TV, you might want to make a friend who does!
