Except for one other week when they released two. The first three seasons it was usually two episodes per week. So I'd bet two eps today.

Looking forward to it. I will miss them after this year.

According to HBO Max, Hacks season 5 will consist of 10 episodes, with new episodes every week (except April 30 and May 7, which will drop two episodes).

This gives us the following schedule:

Episode 1: April 9
Episode 2: April 16
Episode 3: April 23
Episode 4: April 30
Episode 5: April 30
Episode 6: May 7
Episode 7: May 7
Episode 8: May 14
Episode 9: May 21
Episode 10: May 28
