A treasure trove of fun for Outer Banks fans is happening this weekend, making the wait for the fifth and final season worthwhile.
The show, set in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, pits the well-off Kooks (rich preppy kids) and the Pogues (the poor kids) against each other in a treasure hunt of a lifetime.

Warning — spoiler ahead:
According to the logline: “Season five finds the Pogues at their absolute breaking point following the tragic loss of JJ in Morocco. Stranded far from home and mourning the heart of their crew, they’ve lost the Blue Crown and continue to face a gauntlet of familiar threats. With Chandler Groff still at large, Dalia and the Corsairs closing in, and the Kooks ensuring the Pogues have no home to return to, John B, Sarah, Kiara, Pope, and Cleo must rely on their scrappy instincts—and an uneasy alliance with Rafe—to keep from falling apart for good. Their mission is now a desperate race to reclaim their future and finally win the freedom they’ve been chasing since the beginning. It’s the Pogues against the world as they seek to avenge their best friend and bring it on home… one final time.”
Here’s how to livestream the watch party:
