The page has updated its cover photo for the first time since March. Where a black screen-grab of the show's officially going on hiatus as of February 26, 2014 used to greet fans when they go to the page, has officially been replaced with an image of Lebanon Levi standing against a dark blue sky. In bold white letters next to his figure are the words Amish Mafia: The Final Season, with a return date and time of Feb. 10 at 9 p.m.
News broke in October that the show had finally resumed filming after a long hiatus, but without several cast members, who decided to leave after the third season captured ongoing drama between them and the crew, as well as the conflicts they had with the English lifestyle.
Among those not returning are Esther and John Schmucker, or Jolin Zimmerman. Levi, Merlin, Alvin, Caleb and others are all expected to return, potentially with new faces.
Show attorney Steve Breit also revealed that the new season would be very different from past ones, with the cast tackling the Pennsylvania governor's race, as well as the increasing negativity that had been creeping up with the show in Lancaster.
"There's going to be a lot of new twists," Breit said at the time. "We're going to tackle the issue of negativity by not only Mary Haverstick, but also from the tourist bureau as well as the negativity displayed by Lancaster newspapers."
It is currently unclear why this will be the show's final season.
