Objects in Space 1/22/19: I'm not here to play

And we thought the news would be done rolling out after the Oscar nominations, but nope! Ahead of its fourth season premiere this week, SYFY announced that The Magicians has already been picked up for Season 5! As someone who's seen the first couple episodes (sorry, no spoilers), I can confirm that it is bananas and bonkers and wonderful and I am so happy to rest easy in the knowledge that it's returning for another season.
