Here we go! In the shadow of Netflix's big botch, we watch Barry season 4 online tonight, to see Barry (Bill Hader) in a completely new problem.

Barry season 4 premiere date, time

U.S. date and time: Barry season 4 episodes 1 and 2 debut today (Sunday, April 16) at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT on HBO, the same time it hits HBO Max.
U.K. release date: Monday (April 17) at 3 a.m. GMT on Sky Atlantic and NOW.
AU release date: Monday (April 17) at 2 p.m. AEDT on Binge and Foxtel Now.

Last we saw Barry, his acting coach Gene Cousineau (Henry Winkler) had finally turned on him completely — and helped plan the trap that sent Barry to prison. Now, locked up, he's going to come across his former handler Monroe Fuches (Stephen Root). 

Meanwhile, everyone who knew Barry on the outside — especially his ex-girlfriend Sally (Sarah Goldberg) — is going to have to answer some questions about their ties to him. That also includes Noho Hank (Anthony Carrigan). As my Barry season 4 review explains, one of the best moments of the season belongs entirely to Carrigan.

The good news about the Barry season 4 premiere is that it's a two-parter, as both episodes 1 and 2 will air on Sunday night. The bad news? The episode descriptions — "Are you mad at me?" for episode 1 and "Here it comes." for episode 2 — are completely opaque.

Here's the trailer for Barry season 4, one of the best HBO Max shows currently on the air, and we've got all the details about how to watch below.

HBO confirmed that Hader is likely be joined by returning cast members:

  • Stephen Root as Monroe Fuches, Barry's family friend and hitman mentor

We have to note that we're very happy to see that Cristobal is still alive, as NoHo Hank rescued him in the finale. We also expect to see James Hiroyuki Liaobar reprise his role as FBI Agent Albert Nguyen, Barry's old military buddy who let him go.
