The hit romantic drama Sullivan’s Crossing is officially heading into Season 4, keeping viewers hooked with cliffhangers and character drama. Here’s your early look at what’s next.

Sullivan’s Crossing has quietly grown from a Canadian hit into one of Netflix’s most promising imports. With buzz now carrying into Season 4, fans are debating where the story should go — and the latest commentary suggests some major shifts are on the horizon.

From overlooked drama to Netflix breakout

Earlier this week, Us Weekly highlighted the show’s surprising streaming momentum, calling it a series that could be “the next Sullivan’s Crossing” moment for Netflix’s drama lineup. After a steady rise in viewership, it’s no longer the under-the-radar romance — it’s positioned as one of the platform’s next mainstream contenders.

Lola Gunderson’s rise in Timberlake

One of the sharpest talking points going into the new season is whether Lola Gunderson should step further into the spotlight. Over three seasons, she’s transformed from Maggie’s wary rival into one of the community’s most grounded voices. ScreenRant argues that Amalia Williamson’s nuanced performance makes Lola compelling enough to even serve as a narrative counterweight — or replacement — for Maggie in Season 4. That suggestion alone has sparked considerable fan debate about who the heart of the series really is.

Can Maggie & Cal survive a reset?

Equally bold is the idea that Maggie and Cal’s romance may need to break apart in order to be saved. Their pairing has been labeled the show’s “worst couple” in its current state, and some critics believe a surprising separation could be the very thing that redeems them. ScreenRant suggests that stepping back would allow both characters to grow individually, setting the stage for a stronger, more believable reunion down the line.

What Season 4 could deliver

Taken together, these take points toward a crossroads for Sullivan’s Crossing. If Netflix continues to amplify its reach, Season 4 could elevate Lola into a lead role while giving Maggie and Cal the space to reset. Add in the show’s consistent themes of small-town healing and second chances, and the stage is set for a run that could redefine Timberlake’s relationships and cement the series as Netflix’s next big drama breakout.
