Netflix is still in love with “Love on the Spectrum.”

The streaming giant has renewed the U.S. version of “Love on the Spectrum” for a fifth season following the successful debut of its fourth season, Variety has learned exclusively.
Season 3 of the dating show that follows young adults with autism ranked in the Global Top 10 for two weeks. The docu-reality series, which also has two seasons of an Australian version, has won multiple Emmys over its tenure. In 2025, it won for outstanding unstructured reality program and casting for a reality program. The series also earned two Emmys in 2024 for casting and directing, as well as three awards in 2022, including unstructured reality program, casting and editing.
The seven-episode season features longstanding couples and fan favorites such as Madison and Tyler, Connor and Georgie and James and Shelley, as well as welcoming newcomers Logan from Las Vegas, Dylan from Los Angeles and Emma from Utah.

The new season, which dropped on April 1 at the start of Autism Awareness Month, follows the cast as they further explore romance in their lives, with tentative first dates, house-hunting, an amicable breakup, and a tear-jerking proposal among the biggest moments.
In addition, fan favorite Connor Tomlinson — who has appeared on the series for three seasons — confirmed to Variety that he will not return for the upcoming installment as he pivots toward an acting career.
“It is with humility and a heavy heart that I share I will not be partaking in Season 5,” Tomlinson says. “I feel like three seasons is enough to tell my story and find love on my own time.”

He added with a quip, “I’ve chosen to pass the torch to the next person who can make it as big as me.”
Tomlinson said he plans to remain active in the entertainment industry. “Don’t worry about me — I’m still going to be in the acting business, especially voice work,” he shares. “I’ve always been a huge fan of animation and would love to be involved with a TV show.”
He also expressed gratitude to the creative team behind the series. “I want to sincerely thank Cian, Sean [Bowman, casting producer], and the entire crew for changing my life over the past three years.”
Netflix held the show’s official FYC event on Friday evening for this year’s Primetime Emmys race, where it screened the finale and featured a Q&A discussion, moderated by “Heated Rivalry” star François Arnaud, alongside executive producer and creator Cian O’Clery, and cast members Madison, Tyler, Connor (and his mother Lise).
Praised for its insightful and warm-hearted storytelling, the series continues to resonate with audiences worldwide. Along with O’Clery, Karina Holden also serves as executive producer. Production is handled by Northern Pictures.
