HBO’s acclaimed comedy-drama series, Insecure, returns for its fifth and final season in October. Starring Issa Rae as the lead, the show is also based on Rae’s web series, The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl. For four seasons, Insecure has been giving its fans a solid blend of humour and profundity when it comes to relationships, careers, and all sorts of in-betweens in life.

You can expect more of those when the award-winning TV series returns to your screens for its final season. Find out how to watch or stream Insecure season 5 in Australia below.

What to expect in Insecure Season 5?

Insecure follows Issa (Isaa Rae) and her best friend, Molly (Yvonne Orji), as they navigate life’s tough roads in the forms of career decisions, romantic relationships, internal struggles, and lingering prejudice.

In the process of doing so, they’re also left to figure out what’s next, a seemingly simple wonderment that ultimately becomes confusing and overwhelming.
