When is the next season of Payback coming out?
Payback is listed as an ongoing series with a "Returning Series" production status, but the next episode or season has not yet been given a firm air date in the official schedule. The most recent episode aired on July 16, 2025, so any future release date is likely to fall after that.

overview
What is Payback about?
Revenge gets real. Whether it's a cheating ex, a double-crossing co-worker, or the best friend who stabbed you in the back, it's human instinct to want to get even. Though most people don't act on this impulse, there are those who are consumed with getting even. For them, what starts as a nagging bitterness evolves into obsession and results in murder. This true crime documentary series profiles those stories of revenge, told through gripping interviews with the family members, community members, and law enforcement who experienced the events firsthand. It blends crime and documentary elements. The series reflects a distinct United States of America style and perspective.
