HBO confirmed on June 1 that “Euphoria” has ended with its third season, closing the network’s Emmy-winning drama after Sunday night’s finale. Sam Levinson, the show’s creator, writer and director, said in an interview published by the New York Times’ Popcast that the story had reached its endpoint, and HBO separately confirmed to multiple outlets that there will be no fourth season. The final episode, titled “In God We Trust,” aired on May 31 and now stands as the series finale. The show premiered in June 2019 and ran for three seasons over seven years, with long production gaps and repeated questions about whether HBO would continue it beyond the latest run.
