Clarkson's Farm has been renewed for a fourth and fifth season, with the latter expected to air until 2026. However, a recent review suggests the show has become predictable and lost its initial appeal.
The Amazon Prime series, which follows Jeremy Clarkson's attempts to run Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds, has been a hit with viewers. But critics argue that the novelty has worn off by season five, with the antics feeling repetitive and the banter between Clarkson and farm manager Kaleb seeming more contrived.
After Clarkson's health scare last year, season five focuses on his need for a stress-free environment, which becomes a running gag. The pub, rather than the farm, takes centre stage as Clarkson deals with issues like blocked toilets and high energy bills.
Despite the criticism, the show's political commentary on farmers' rights has been praised. However, the review notes Clarkson's double standard in supporting farmers' protests while dismissing other causes as 'woke nonsense'.
Clarkson had previously suggested the show might end with season five, but has since indicated both he and Amazon are keen to continue. Reports suggest council documents hint at a possible season six.
Season five, episodes one to four, are available now on Amazon Prime Video.
