How many episodes will there be in Bel-Air season 4? Episode count, release schedule, and more

Bel-Air season 4 marks the final chapter in the dramatic reimagining of the beloved 1990s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. This last season brings the story of Will, Aunt Viv, Uncle Phil, and the rest of the Banks family to an end.

Set to premiere on November 24, 2025, Bel-Air season 4 consists of 8 episodes. As this is the final season, viewers can expect some closure and key resolutions to long-running plot points. The season will be available to stream on Peacock, NBCUniversal’s popular streaming service.

In the 2022 premiere of the show, Will, a talented teen from West Philadelphia, moves in with his wealthy cousins in Bel-Air. The story is a modern take on the classic Fresh Prince story. The show looks at family, identity, status, and the problems Will has in this wealthy neighborhood, which is very different from where he comes from.

This season, Will and his cousin Carlton are getting ready for life after high school. Other family members are also dealing with their own problems. Also, the fourth season continues with the secret surrounding Aunt Viv's possible pregnancy and the unresolved plot points from season 3.
