“How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast)” (also known as HTSDOF) launches its final season today on Netflix. This German series uniquely blends a geeky coming-of-age story with adolescent troubles and the criminal underworld. Since its debut, this mix has captivated thousands of fans who will now tune in for its conclusion.
While the fourth season shifts away from the purely teen comedy tone that initially defined it, it retains its overall joyfulness and comedic feel, even as it explores a more mature phase of life with fewer overtly comical situations. It’s a fitting farewell for one of Germany’s standout series in recent years.
Moritz’s Journey
At its heart, the show follows Moritz Zimmermann, a high school student initially driven by the simple goal of winning back his ex-girlfriend, Lisa Novak. Alongside his brilliant best friend, Lenny Sander, Moritz’s attempts to impress Lisa by selling ecstasy online unexpectedly spiral into building a major digital drug empire. This risky path led to an eight-year prison sentence, of which Moritz served four.
Upon his release, life has moved on. Moritz finds his friends involved in a new company called Bonus Life, with a former associate as CEO and his close friend Lenny working there. Moritz joins the company too, but he hasn’t given up on his dream of being his own boss and launching his own startup. Will he succeed?
About Season Four of “How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast)”
The fourth season consists of six episodes, all released today. The series maintains its comedic tone but introduces a more corporate atmosphere, especially in the early episodes, until Moritz’s old partners resurface and his father discovers a body.
“How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast)” stays true to its essence in this final season. Although Moritz has grown up and some of the initial freshness might seem faded compared to the first season, the show continues with the lighthearted, comedic style of previous seasons. There’s little moralizing or judgment; life goes on, which seems to be the message of this comedy, now focusing on Moritz’s efforts to reintegrate into society and the impossibility of escaping the past.
A sense of nostalgia inevitably permeates these final episodes. Knowing that great shows like this won’t continue is bittersweet. Nevertheless, it remains one of the best German TV productions recently, and Moritz, Lenny, and their friends have provided many memorable moments. This fourth season offers a more adult narrative that looks back fondly on adolescence, providing a worthy conclusion to a great series.
Enjoy the final season.
