Anthony Crane, Brianna Brown, Rigo Sanchez, and Mia Challis were cast in recurring roles for the series' fourth season.[17]
Filming
Co-creator Jonas Pate envisioned filming in Wilmington, North Carolina, but Netflix opted not to film the show there because of the state's House Bill 2 legislation.[18] Principal photography for the first season began on May 1, 2019, in Charleston, South Carolina including James Island, Johns Island, Kiawah Island, Morris Island Lighthouse (interior), and Hunting Island Lighthouse (exterior).[19][20] Filming for the second season began on August 31, 2020, and concluded on April 2, 2021.[21][22][23][24] Filming for the third season began on February 15, 2022 and concluded on September 17, 2022.[25][26] Filming for the fourth season began on June 17, 2023.[27] Filming locations include greater Wilmington for the first time in the series' history.[28] On the week of July 14, 2023, production was suspended due to the commencement of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.[29] The series later resumed production in North Carolina on November 20, 2023.[30] In February 2024, the series filmed for a month in Morocco, including the cities of Essaouira and Ouarzazate.[31]
The first season of Outer Banks premiered on April 15, 2020.[5] The second season premiered on July 30, 2021.[32] The third season premiered on February 23, 2023.[7]
The fourth season is set to be released in 2024.[33]
Critical response
Steve Greene of IndieWire gave the series' first season a B− and wrote a review saying, "Some of those later confrontations buckle under the weight of their plot connecting, but when Outer Banks dials its melodrama to its own sweet spot, there's enough fun to keep a story-hungry audience following along the trail."[34] Reviewing the series for The Hollywood Reporter, Daniel Fienberg described the series' first season as "pretty people, pretty cinematography, pretty dumb" and said, "the show is positively littered with characters and plot threads that feel like they might have been relevant or even important in a 13-episode season or a YA novel that offered more breathing room."[35]
On Rotten Tomatoes, the first season holds an approval rating of 74% based on 23 reviews, with an average rating of 6.8/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Outer Banks' over-the-top melodrama is balanced out by a strong sense of adventure that's bound to hook those looking to capture that summer feeling."[36] On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 61 out of 100 based on 9 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[37]
The second season has an 86% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 7 reviews, with an average rating of 6.7/10.[38]
On Rotten Tomatoes, the third season holds an approval rating of 56% based on 9 reviews, with an average rating of 4.1/10.[39]
Audience viewership
For the week of August 2 to 8, 2021, Outer Banks was ranked number one in the Nielsen ratings U.S. streaming chart, who announced that the show had been viewed for a total of 2.1 billion minutes of its 20 episodes.[40] For the following week, the series was ranked number one again in the Nielsen ratings U.S. streaming chart with a total of 1.16 billion total minutes of viewing for the 20 episodes.[41]
Legal matter
On December 21, 2020, a North Carolina teacher and author named Kevin Wooten filed a lawsuit against Netflix and the creators of Outer Banks, claiming they stole the plot of his novel Pennywise: The Hunt For Blackbeard's Treasure!. Wooten had sought for ongoing royalties and damages payments.[42][43] The lawsuit was ultimately dismissed by federal judge Timothy Batten the following year in favor of the Pate brothers and Burke. In a 25-page opinion, Batten noted that the plots of Wooten's novel and the series shared similarities with respect to the themes of shipwrecks and finding buried treasure but opined that the substantial differences in other aspects, such as the plot and characterization, meant that analyzing the plots of both works "at such a high level of abstraction would render every work involving a hunt for treasure susceptible to copyright infringement."[44][45]
