Charleston Welcomes Back the Pogues and Kooks
Hey there, Charleston! Exciting news for fans of the hit show Outer Banks—the long-awaited fourth season has officially dropped on Netflix! To celebrate this fantastic moment, the cast threw a fabulous red carpet event and screening right here in the **Holy City**. Fans gathered in throngs along John Street and the surrounding blocks, eager to catch a glimpse of their favorite Pogues and Kooks.
Local Landmarks Shine in Season Four
In previous seasons, viewers have enjoyed spotting some of the Lowcountry’s most iconic landmarks, and season four doesn’t disappoint. In the very first episode, you’ll see the charming Pitt Street Pharmacy, a local treasure. It’s always fun when a show incorporates real spots that locals cherish. But wait, there’s more! This season also features appearances from various beloved Charleston brands, making it a true local affair.
Meet a Local Artist Behind the Scenes
We had the chance to chat with the lovely Missy Johnson, the talented artist and owner of Black Octopus Mercantile in Park Circle. Missy shared that she collaborates with the Set Decoration Crew, and if you pay close attention, you’re bound to see some of her unique T-shirts, hats, hoodies, and stickers adorning the Pogues’ Kildare Surf Shop. “It has been a lot of fun being one of the local businesses OBX works with. It’s been cool seeing my art on the show,” she said enthusiastically.
If you keep your eyes peeled, you might spot her stickers on John B.’s Twinkie Van, cleverly placed on the panel behind the front passenger seat. For our fellow fans out there, Missy has curated a special set of stickers called the Pogue Pack, so be sure to check those out next time you’re at her store!
Find Your Favorite Character
When it comes to the show, everyone has their favorite characters, and Missy is no different. She revealed that John B. resonates with her. “He rolls kinda like I do when it comes to family, friends, and how he treats people and situations. I’m a total ‘coast kid’ as my friends call me, and love everything to do with my southern heritage, the ocean, and adventure,” she explained. It sounds like Missy really gets what the show embodies, which is that carefree lifestyle mixed with heartfelt relationships.
