The Chad Powers Episode 6 Release Date
Yes, the finale is dropping Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at 12:00 a.m. ET (9:00 p.m. PT on October 27), exclusively on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally.
That’s right, it’s the “6th Quarter,” a fitting end to a show obsessed with football metaphors. Hulu started the series with a double premiere on September 30 (Episodes 1 and 2), then rolled out weekly episodes every Tuesday like clockwork. So, mark that night. Grab your snack lineup, maybe wear your lucky jersey, and expect some heart-palpitating comedy chaos.
What’s funny is how many of us didn’t even plan to get attached. I mean, it’s Glen Powell pretending to be a washed-up quarterback pretending to be someone else. How seriously could that go? But somewhere between the locker room jokes and emotional locker-room speeches, it got us.
Does Chad Powers Get Caught?
Most likely, yes. It’s been building to that all season. Episode 6’s official synopsis confirms that “the truth about Chad Powers threatens to emerge on the eve of the biggest game of the season.” After Episode 5’s dramatic Coach Hudson heart attack and that eyebrow-raising College Gameday segment, the walls are clearly closing in.
And if you’re like me, you probably shouted at the screen last week, “Russ, just come clean already!” But of course, he didn’t. That’s what makes the finale juicy. The writers have hinted that the big reveal won’t just be about exposure; it’s also about redemption. Whether it’s forgiving himself or facing the mess he created, it promises emotional payoff right alongside the laughs.
I’ll go ahead and say it, I’ll miss his ridiculous mustache disguise. There’s something oddly heartfelt about watching a man so desperate for second chances that he literally reinvents himself as a rookie. It’s absurd.
How Many Episodes Will Chad Powers Have?
Season 1 is a six-episode limited series, and Episode 6 is the grand finale. Each episode has been cleverly named like football quarters “1st Quarter,” “2nd Quarter,” and so on, leading to this mysterious “6th Quarter.” That alone tells you the creators, Glen Powell and Michael Waldron (along with producers Peyton and Eli Manning, yes, really), had a thematic arc in mind from the start.
Episode Release Schedule
| Episode | Title | Release Date |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1st Quarter | September 30, 2025 |
| 2 | 2nd Quarter | September 30, 2025 |
| 3 | 3rd Quarter | October 7, 2025 |

| 5 | 5th Quarter | October 21, 2025 |
| 6 | 6th Quarter (Finale) | October 28, 2025 |
So if you’re wondering, “Will there be a Season 2?” probably not. It’s billed as a one-shot story. But with that kind of finale buzz , you never know what Hollywood might cook up.
A Last Word Before Kickoff
Watching Chad Powers weekly has become a tiny event for me, the kind where you text your buddies halfway through just to say, “Bro, did you see that play?” Episode 6 is shaping up to be the perfect mix of humor and heartbreak. One last game. One last chance for Chad to tell the truth.
Whether he wins or not almost doesn’t matter anymore. Because sometimes, the comeback isn’t on the field, it’s in admitting who you really are. And if that’s not the most unexpectedly heartfelt thing a football comedy could teach us, well, then I don’t know what is
