Apple TV’s comedy-drama series about the life of Emily Dickinson is hugely popular among fans. The streaming platform premiered on December 24, 2021 with Dickinson’s third season finale. Since then, fans have been curious about what the future holds for Emily, Sue and other characters. So let’s dive in to know all the details about Dickinson season 4.
Dickinson is an American periodical comedy-drama series that debuted on Apple TV+ in November 2019. The show portrays the early days of famed Civil War poet Emily Dickinson. It combines the elements of documented history with a fictional drama. Created by Alena Smith, Dickinson tells the story of young poet Emily’s journey and her love story with Sue through changing social and political landscapes. Topics such as feminism, homosexuality and war are excellently covered in the series.
Is Dickinson Season 4 Coming?
The third season of Apple Tv+ Dickinson premiered on streaming from November 5 to December 24, 2021. Speaking of Dickinson Season 4, what we know may not be what fans were hoping for. According to reports, the show will not return for Dickinson Season 4, as Apple TV+ canceled the series ahead of the fourth season.
Showrunner Alena Smith stated during an interview: “For four years I developed it” [‘Dickinson’]wrote the pilot and sketched three seasons before I sold it to Apple in 2017.” I really love it when something can have a beginning, middle, and end and do what it comes down to say. And I really have it feeling that we should do that with ‘Dickinson’.’
What happened in the third season?
In Dickinson’s third season, Emily tried to find purpose for her poetry as her country was devastated by the Civil War. Meanwhile, Emily also faced family drama and personal conflicts in her life. Henry went to the southern part of the country and left Amherst.
When Edward made contact with his brother, who was on the Confederate side, the people of the city grew cold with him. Ithamar Conkey told Edward to take one side or the other politically. Meanwhile, Austine sue filed for divorce, as he wanted to start his own law firm. Sue also felt let down after learning about Emily’s note to Higginson.

Emily’s mother was concerned about her role as mother and wife after the family went to an insane asylum. After meeting some women in the asylum, Edward seemed to accept the quirky side of Emily’s personality. Emily, who sided with her father over her brother, was eventually considered welcome. In addition, Emily’s mother was overwhelmed with her family responsibilities. And the war felt overwhelmed because she missed the simple days of her youth.
Because of her obsession with poetry, Emily sometimes overlooked love, which she debated with Sue. Emily finds out that her country thinks she’s lonely but is a wonderful poet. However, the catastrophe brought Emily and Vinnie closer than ever. Emily also communicated regularly with Death.
Why does Emily refuse to come out of her room?

In the third season finale, Higginson finally reaches Amherst to see the young poet who encouraged him throughout the Civil War. Emily refuses to go downstairs to meet Higginson, despite finishing her white dress with Betty in her room. Emily illustrates that the way she has described herself in the letters is not quite right. We can see that now that she’s finally confident in her poetry and her pursuit, she doesn’t want to meet Higginson in person.
The point that Emily eventually refuses to see Higginson in the ending indicates that she no longer seeks his review to feel good about her poetry. In addition, it indicates her preference to avoid people she does not know. In addition, Emily has never suggested that she want to meet Higginson in person. It was Higginson who assumed the poet would also be interested in meeting him in person. When the show returns for Dickinson Season 4, we’ll see what’s next for Emily.
