The fifth installment of the Psychological drama was released on 25th August 2019 and smoothly concluded on 3rd November 2019. Now, if we talk about The Affair season 6, we have something that is nothing short of heartbreaking. In July 2018, some days before the wrap-up of the fourth iteration, Showtime officially had declared that the drama would end after the fifth season’s premiere. The channel confirmed that they aren’t terminating the series but rather it’s an ordinary conclusion.

Later, a channel executive mentioned, “Sarah Treem (co-creator) has always envisioned this as a five-season series, and we will be fascinated to see where she takes her talented cast and all of us next year in its climactic season”. So, as of now, the series is discontinued. There are fewer possibilities that the drama will be renewed in the future. But if something like this happens, we will notify you.
