The Idyllwild Wimmin’s Music Festival. Various iterations of gender, sexuality, intersectionality, and feminism. Sia. Maura Pfefferman (Jeffrey Tambor) has experienced a bunch of new things since the beginning of “Transparent” — so it’s almost surprising she hasn’t tried edibles yet. With the help of her daughter Ali (Gaby Hoffman), it looks like Maura will officially cross that off her bucket list as well in the upcoming season of Jill Soloway’s Amazon dramedy.
“It’s medical marijuana in this delicious, cute little gummy bear,” Ali explains to her parent in the teaser for “Transparent” Season 4. Wordlessly, Maura pops the gummy into her mouth as Ali looks on in delight. “Uh, I was just gonna have you eat the head,” Ali says. “You’re gonna be so high!”
As for the other Pfeffermans, the teaser hints that Sarah (Amy Landecker) and her ex-husband are growing closer, Ali’s newest passion is Judaism, and Josh (Jay Duplass) is living with mother Shelly (Judith Light).
“Transparent” was created by Soloway, who also serves as showrunner on the Emmy-winning series. Soloway is involved with a number of other projects at Amazon, including the new series “I Love Dick,” based on Chris Kraus’ 1997 epistolary novel, a musical comedy about love and self-discovery, and a limited series about a women’s rodeo.
No word on an official premiere date yet, but the fourth season of “Transparent” is expected in late summer or early fall. Check out the teaser below.
