If you’ve spent any time lately scrolling through Netflix or flipping to The CW, you’ve probably seen the misty, pine-covered hills of Nova Scotia beckoning you. It’s that Sullivan's Crossing pull. Honestly, it’s basically the TV equivalent of a warm blanket on a rainy Sunday. But if you’re trying to figure out exactly where we are in Maggie and Cal's slow-burn saga, things can get a little confusing with the way international release dates work.
So, let's cut to the chase: How many seasons of Sullivan's Crossing are there?
As of right now, in early 2026, there are three full seasons available to watch. But—and this is a big "but" for the superfans—a fourth season is officially happening. It's actually in the works as we speak.
The Season Count: Where We Stand in 2026
The show has had a pretty wild ride since it first premiered back in 2023. It started as a Canadian gem on CTV before the US caught wind of it and turned it into a full-blown obsession.
Here is the breakdown of the story so far:

- Season 1 (10 Episodes): This is where we met Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan), the high-flying neurosurgeon whose life in Boston basically implodes. She retreats to her estranged father Sully’s (Scott Patterson) campground. Enter Cal Jones (Chad Michael Murray), the mysterious, brooding handyman who we all knew was going to be trouble (the good kind).
- Season 2 (10 Episodes): Things got heavy. We dealt with the fallout of that hit-and-run, Maggie’s mounting legal drama, and a "will-they-won't-they" that felt like it was stretching our hearts to the breaking point.
- Season 3 (10 Episodes): This season aired throughout 2025. Maggie officially ditched the Boston scrubs to make the Crossing her home. We saw her and Cal finally trying to be a "real" couple, while Sully found a surprising new spark with the author Helen Culver.
That Season 3 Finale Cliffhanger (Spoilers!)
If you haven't finished the third season yet, look away. Seriously.
The finale left us all staring at our screens in total disbelief. Just when Maggie and Cal seemed to be finding some footing, a ghost from the past literally walked into the room. Liam Davies—played by Marcus Rosner—showed up and dropped the ultimate bombshell: he and Maggie are actually married.
Cal’s face? Devastated. Our faces? Shocked. It was a classic Roma Roth move (she’s the showrunner who also gave us Virgin River, so she knows exactly how to make us suffer in the best way).
What’s the Deal With Sullivan's Crossing Season 4?
The good news is that we aren't being left in the lurch. The CW and CTV didn't wait long to pull the trigger on a renewal. They officially greenlit Season 4 in the summer of 2025 after the show absolutely dominated the Netflix Top 10 charts.

Production has been moving along in Nova Scotia. Word on the street is that the new season will once again consist of 10 episodes. While we don't have a calendar date circled in red just yet, the network has confirmed a 2026 premiere.
Expect the early part of the season to focus heavily on the "Liam problem." We’re also hearing that some new faces are joining the cast, including Jonathan Silverman and Fuad Ahmed. It sounds like the Crossing is about to get a lot more crowded, and probably a lot more dramatic.
Where Can You Actually Watch All These Seasons?
Streaming rights are always a bit of a jigsaw puzzle. If you're in the United States, Netflix is currently the best home for the first three seasons. They landed Season 3 in August 2025, so if you’ve been waiting to binge the whole thing, you can finally do that.
If you don't have Netflix, you can usually find the most recent episodes on The CW app for free (with ads). For the Canadian crowd, it’s all about CTV and Crave.

Why We’re Still Obsessed
People keep asking why this show works so well. It’s kinda simple, really. In a world of gritty true crime and high-stress thrillers, Sullivan's Crossing feels human. It deals with real stuff—miscarriage, estranged parents, the fear of starting over, and the messy reality of small-town gossip.
Plus, seeing Scott Patterson play a "grumpy-but-gold" dad again? It’s nostalgia fuel for the Gilmore Girls fans, but with a lot more emotional depth.
Ready to catch up?
If you're looking to dive back in or start for the first time, here’s your move:
- Binge the backlog: Hit Netflix to get through the 30 existing episodes so you’re ready for the new drop.
- Watch for the Season 4 trailer: Since we're already in 2026, expect a teaser to hit YouTube or social media any day now.
- Read the books: If you can't wait for the screen version, Robyn Carr has an entire book series that the show is based on. Just fair warning: the show deviates from the books quite a bit, so don't expect a carbon copy!
The saga of the Crossing is far from over. Whether Maggie stays married to a guy she seemingly forgot or finally finds her peace with Cal, we'll be watching.
