The most anticipated TV shows of 2025
USA TODAY TV critic Kelly Lawler shares her top 5 TV shows she is most excited for this year
This is the end.
The fourth and final season of HBO’s “The Righteous Gemstones” will come to an end on May 4, as the series finale is set to close the Gemstone saga.
The show starring Danny McBride (Jesse Gemstone), Walton Goggins (Baby Billy Freeman) and John Goodman (Eli Gemstone) “tells the story of a world-famous televangelist family with a long tradition of deviance, greed, and charitable work,” according to Warner Bros.
Ahead of the final episode, Danny McBride told the Associated Press that he hoped “religious people” would watch the series.
“A lot of people who come up to me, honestly, their first thing will be like, ‘I go to church and I think it’s funny,’” he told the Associated Press. “My hope honestly, with creating the show was that people who were religious would watch it. That, ultimately, they would understand that this isn’t making fun of them, but it’s probably making fun of people that they identify and are annoyed by.”
