Episode count: 10 one-hour episodes
Season status: Netflix’s Tudum page calls it the final season

The direct answer for viewers

The official Netflix materials identify the date, episode count, and the broad story setup. They say the fifth season follows the Pogues after JJ’s death in Morocco and name Chandler Groff as still at large. That is the plot context Netflix has published, not a complete episode-by-episode account.

Netflix’s Tudum page describes season five as the final season and likewise points to the August 20 return. Readers who want a concise status update can rely on those two official pages for the basic release and setup information.

What is not established here

The release pages do not provide a review, audience response, viewership result, or a promise that a particular plot event will unfold in a particular way. A season premise is not a substitute for watching the episodes, and the final-season label does not support speculation about every character or ending.

The practical next check is Netflix’s own title and Tudum pages for any release detail or program update. This article is time-bounded to the listed August 20 release information and does not turn that listing into a demand claim or a prediction.
