ROOM 104 returns for its fourth and final season FRIDAY, JULY 24 (11:00-11:30 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO.

Created by Mark and Jay Duplass (HBO's "Animals." and "Togetherness"), the late-night, half-hour anthology series returns with 12 new episodes, each telling a unique and unexpected tale of the characters who pass through a single room of a typical American chain motel.

While the setting stays the same, every episode of the series features a different story, with the tone, plot, characters, and even the time period, changing with each installment.

ROOM 104 will be available on HBO and to stream on HBO Max.

Exploring a variety of genres, from dark comedy to sci-fi, to the series' first ever animated episode and original songs, this season will continue to surprise viewers week to week. The premiere episode will be the first time in the series that Mark Duplass stars, writes, directs and performs original music. Stories and characters featured in season four include: an estranged performer giving a one-night-only performance; a woman battling her dark past with addiction; a dollhouse; transporting back in time; and more. Providing one last glimpse into the lives of the guests in Room 104, the final season of the genre bending, and risk-taking anthology proves to be another showcase of writing, performing and directing.
