## Broadcast and production

Fox renewed *Lego Masters* for a fifth season in September 2024, before season 4 had premiered.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup> The season aired in the summer 2025 Monday 8 pm slot, with new episodes available on Hulu the day after broadcast.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup> A "Season 5 First Look" promotional clip aired on Fox on May 20, 2025, introducing Arnett, Corbett, Berard, and the new contestants facing "the most challenging builds yet."<sup>[2](https://www.fox.com/watch/clip/fmc-du2ux7jlvh0e2f4m/season-5-first-look)</sup>

The season was the last with [Will Arnett](https://www.edgepedia.org/will-arnett) as host. When the show returned for season 6 in the 2025-26 season, [Nick Cannon](https://www.edgepedia.org/nick-cannon) of *[The Masked Singer](https://www.edgepedia.org/the-masked-singer-american-tv-series)* took over hosting duties.<sup>[7](https://9c519110712a1cc5ffdf-b1b745d17d9877b298ac94fd86f5428e.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/ChannelGuideE-Aug2025.pdf)</sup>

## Format and judging

The core format is unchanged from earlier seasons: teams of two amateur builders receive themed challenges, work with an unlimited supply of Lego bricks, and the pairs that impress the judges advance, until the finale decides the winner.<sup>[8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sf2ITwF361s)</sup> Corbett and Berard are Lego set designers by profession, and in an interview with the fan site Brickset they described how their television judging had evolved across seasons: they give detailed coaching feedback to the teams on the build floor, then deliver separate, shorter "one-liners" for the home audience, a two-audience approach they identified as their biggest adjustment to judging for television.<sup>[9](https://brickset.com/article/82792)</sup>

Season 5 added one structural change. For the first time in the American series, the competing teams themselves determine which team receives the golden brick, which grants immunity against elimination.<sup>[5](https://thetvdb.com/series/lego-masters-us/allseasons/official)</sup>

## Episodes and challenges

The ten episodes, each listed at 43 minutes by TheTVDB, ran from May 19 to July 28, 2025.<sup>[3](https://thetvdb.com/series/lego-masters-us/seasons/official/5)</sup>

| # | Title | First aired |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Rebuild the Galaxy | May 19, 2025 |
| 2 | Wedding Cakes | May 26, 2025 |
| 3 | Over the Falls | June 2, 2025 |
| 4 | Wicked | June 9, 2025 |
| 5 | Get in Gear | June 16, 2025 |
| 6 | Batman | June 23, 2025 |

| 9 | Great Ball Contraptions | July 21, 2025 |
| 10 | Hall of Fame Finale | July 28, 2025 |

The challenge list drew on licensed themes and mechanism building. The premiere, "Rebuild the Galaxy," was a [Star Wars](https://www.edgepedia.org/star-wars)-themed episode in which teams transformed the remnants of a destroyed planet into a new creation within a six-hour build window.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup> "Masquerade" required each team to build a wearable mask strong enough to be worn in a grand entrance at a masquerade ball, a first for the series.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup> In "Is it Brick? '90s Edition," teams replicated items from Will Arnett's 1990s bedroom at one-to-one scale, while Lego Masters season 2 winners Mark and Steven tried to identify which items were actually Lego.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup> "Great Ball Contraptions" had four remaining teams build intricate ping-pong ball moving contraptions for a finale spot, a challenge built around the Great Ball Contraption, a hobby standard in which modules pass balls along a chain.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[10](https://studcrate.com/lego-masters/us-season-5/)</sup>

In the finale, the remaining teams built their "Master Build," a final creation blending personality with masterful skill, balancing last-minute twists and unexpected missteps.<sup>[1](https://www.whattowatch.com/watching-guides/lego-masters-season-5-release-date-host-and-everything-we-know-so-far)</sup>

## Reception and context

On IMDb the season holds a 7.5 rating, and [JustWatch](https://www.edgepedia.org/justwatch) recorded a 63% user rating from 56 votes for the season.<sup>[6](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/lego-masters-2020/season-5)</sup> A fan breakdown of the season noted that by season 5 the format trusted its teams to attempt harder builds, with a visibly higher ceiling than season 1, citing the Great Ball Contraption night and the licensed scene-building episodes as examples.<sup>[10](https://studcrate.com/lego-masters/us-season-5/)</sup>
