How did Season 4 of Elite fare with its new cast and new storyline? Let’s take a look at what worked and what didn’t in the latest season of this Netflix series. Much like other shows set in high school, viewers tend to become attached to the original characters, and when they age out, the creators have their work cut out for them introducing new characters. Season 4 picks up a few months after the events of the previous season, with returning cast members Itzan Escamilla (Samuel “Samu” Garcia Domínguez), Miguel Bernardeau (Guzmán Nunier Osuna), Omar Ayuso (Omar Shanaa), Arón Piper (Ander Muñoz), Claudia Salas (Rebeka “Rebe” Parrilla de Bormujo Ávalos), and Georgina Amorós (Cayetana “Caye” Grajera Pando) joined by the ‘New Order’ Carla Díaz, Martina Cariddi and Manu Ríos as the Blanco Commerford siblings, Ari, Mencía and Patrick, respectively, along with Pol Granch as Phillippe von Triesenberg. The first three seasons focused on a core group of students, most of whom graduated by the Season 3 finale. The gorgeous cast of characters are perennially involved in high drama at home and at their illustrious school, Las Encinas. The show may not be prestige television, but it has never not been compelling. Netflix’s Elite is a Spanish-language production designed to get you hot under the collar.
