Fans Upset as Apple TV+ Cancels Mythic Quest Season 4 with New Ending

Apple TV+ delivered some disappointing news to fans of Mythic Quest by canceling the workplace comedy after its fourth season. The season wrapped up on March 26 with a season finale, not a series finale. However, Apple decided to rework the last episode’s cliffhanger so it can serve as the final ending to the entire series. This new ending is expected to be available for streaming in mid-April.

In a surprising move, Apple granted the creators of Mythic Quest permission to update the finale of season four with a new ending to give closure to viewers. The revised finale is set to be released as soon as next week. The executive producers of the show, Megan Ganz, David Hornsby, and Rob McElhenney, expressed their gratitude for the show and its dedicated fan base. They thanked everyone involved in making the series a success and Apple for supporting the vision. This final update to the last episode allows the creators to bid farewell to the show properly.

Mythic Quest first aired on Apple TV+ in 2020, becoming one of the platform’s initial original series. With positive reviews and a loyal following, the show ran for four seasons. Starring Rob McElhenney as Ian Grimm and Charlotte Nicdao as Poppy Li, the series delved into issues within the tech and gaming industries while balancing comedy at its core. The show also released two pandemic-themed episodes, “Quarantine” in 2020 and “Everlight” in 2021.

Despite its success and critical acclaim, the cancellation of Mythic Quest sparked disappointment and backlash from fans. Some fans expressed confusion about the decision, given the positive reviews and the recent spinoff, Side Quest, which was released in March. While not all viewers were sad to see the show go, many expressed gratitude for the seasons they had and looked forward to the new ending to provide closure.

The updated final episode with its new ending is scheduled to be available for streaming next week, giving fans the opportunity to say goodbye to the beloved series.
