HBO Max When former college classmate Chantal (Clare McNulty) goes missing, Dori Seif (Alia Shawkat) soon becomes obsessed and drags her boyfriend, Drew (John Reynolds), and best friends Portia (Meredith Hagner) and Elliot (John Early) into an increasingly ludicrous and dangerous situation as they try to hunt down what happened to Chantal. Now in its fourth season,
Search Party follows the four self-absorbed 20-somethings through the search, a murder, a trial, and a kidnapping. The group is needy, self-obsessed, and foolish all at the same time but somehow you re still rooting for them. Shawkat is fantastic as the lead, a lost woman who doesn t know what her next step in life should be living with a lot of what-ifs and if-onlys. The dark comedy is a wild ride through a whole lot of poor decision-making and insufferable self-absorption, and it takes some pretty crazy turns I absolutely wasn t expecting, especially in this latest season.
Search Party Season 4 Goes Back to Its Missing Person Roots

Welcome to
Previously On, a column that fills you in on our favorite returning TV shows. This week, Liz Baessler reviews Season 4 of the HBO Max series Search Party.
In 2016,
Search Party appeared quietly on the scene. An
Alia Shawkat-led comedy/thriller with an impeccable grip on cringe and a loving but brutal understanding of millennial culture, it checked off so many boxes viewers didn’t even know they had. Now it’s back on HBO Max with a fourth season that’s very different, but still brilliant.
