‘The Circle’: What Time Will New Episodes of Season 4 Be Added to Netflix?

Hope you have a glass of water ready, because The Circle Season 4 is the spiciest competition yet. Hope you’re not getting tired of the spice references. What do you expect? The Circle dropped Mel B and Emma into an apartment and then made them decorate a four-tier cake together! After last season’s Lance Bass fakeout, the fact that we got 2/5ths of the biggest girl group of all time sliding into DMs and sending eggplant emojis is wild.

Of course you’ve already blown through the first four episodes of Season 4. With the spicy twist ending to Episode 1, how could you not? Now the question is: when will Netflix drop more episodes of The Circle Season 4? And how many episodes will be in The Circle Season 4? Keep reading to find out, and for a recap of where we left the season at the end of Week 1.

How does The Circle Season 4, week 1 end?

SPOILERS ahead, because Week 1 ends on the spiciest cliffhanger in Circle history! The first four episodes of Season 4 have been all about the Spice Girls — specifically Melanie Brown and Emma Bunton (a.k.a. Scary and Baby Spice, respectively). The two icons are catfishing together as Jared, a goofy children’s book author, and they’re doing it for a cause: if they can successfully evade detection in The Circle, they will add $50,000 to the prize fund!

But remaining undetected has gotten tougher because the Circle told all of the players that one of their profiles has Mel B and Emma behind it. Every player spent Episode 4 trying to find the spiciest catfish of them all. To Mel/Emma/”Jared’s” advantage, Alyssa put #SmallAndSpicy in her profile without even knowing that the Spice Girls would factor into this competition!

Somehow, though, no one actually pegged Alyssa as the secret Spice Girl. When the players vote at the end of Episode 4 on who they think is a Spice Girl, two people vote for Rachel — and two people vote for Jared! If the majority of people vote for Jared, then the prize money stays at $100,000. What will happen?!
