The Magicians to end with fifth season

The Magicians, one of the trademark shows of the American pay television channel, is coming to a close with its fifth season. The final episodes of the show will be released on April 1. 

The fantasy show is based on the novel of the same name, written by Lev Grossman. The show has been grappling with the declining number of viewers, which has become typical of all the TV shows. 

The Magicians, created by Sera Gamble and John McNamara, the series stars Jason Ralph, Stella Maeve, Olivia Taylor Dudley, and Hale Appleman in the lead roles.

The fourth season of the show ended with an unexpected twist, which killed the lead character. The move was received with both positive and negative feedback from the audience and the critics.
