The series "Machos Alfa", created by siblings Laura and Alberto Caballero (responsible for hits like "La que se avecina"), is a satirical comedy that explores the crisis of masculinity in the era of equality and female empowerment. According to the Argentine News Agency, the Netflix production recently premiered its fourth season, which became a hit on the platform in a couple of hours. Netflix premiered the new season of "Machos Alfa." "Machos Alfa" has consolidated itself as one of the most-watched Spanish fictions globally on Netflix, thanks to its ability to laugh at current topics without losing empathy for its characters. What is the fourth season of "Machos Alfa" about? Following the success of the previous installments, the fourth season—just released on Netflix this January 16, 2026—takes the protagonists' conflicts to a new level of public and personal exposure. If in the third season we saw them dealing with concepts like open relationships and harassment, in this new stage the series focuses on how the four friends manage success and failure under the microscope of social media. Pedro: After regaining his professional status, he faces the dilemma of being an "ally" for the public while struggling not to return to his old commanding habits. Raúl: His relationship with Luz remains an ethical battlefield, now exploring the limits of commitment in a stage of maturity that he doesn't quite accept. Luis and Esther: They continue to deal with family routine, but with a twist towards the challenges of parenting in modern times and the pressure to be the "perfect father." Santi: The character who has evolved the most continues to try to find a balance between his love life and his role as an unwilling mentor to his friends. What to expect from these new episodes? Critics have highlighted that this season is the most acidic to date. The series maintains its agile format of 30-minute episodes, ideal for a binge-watch, and reinforces the role of the female couples (Daniela, Luz, and Esther), who stop being mere spectators to take the reins of the most important plots. The humor continues to be based on discomfort and everyday situations where men are exposed in their contradictions, but with a script that avoids moralistic sermons to focus on pure situation comedy.
