Season 3 of Warehouse 13 ended with a major "all is woe" cliffhanger, so as you might expect, this season kicks off with the warehouse team employing desperate measures to correct the situation. They succeed in this, of course - there wouldn't be much of a show if they did not! - but such drastic actions carry their own adverse side-effects that will soon force them all to confront a whole new series of threats. And will confronting those threats lead to new dangers? Well of course it will! The Warehouse - it's like a perpetual motion machine for trouble!
This is the longest single series of Warehouse 13, with two major plot arcs running through it; one leading into the mid-season "the world is doomed" cliffhanger and one leading into the end of season "the world is doomed" cliffhanger.
... you may be noticing something of a theme with how this show likes to punctuate its major plots.
You may also notice something of a "guest stars from other genre shows" thing going with the show, too. There's been a fair bit of that already, mind you, with the Eureka crossovers and guest spots from at least three different Star Trek actors, but this season hits a whole new gear on this front.
Despite the repetition of certain story beats, season four of Warehouse 13 is I think a stronger offering than the previous series (just as season 2 was a step up from season 1, come to think of it). Hopefully this down-up-down-up pattern won't continue with another down for the fifth and final series.

If light adventure genre TV is in your wheelhouse, you will probably find yourself entertained here.
