The Big Bang Theory lived on through its spin-off prequel series following a Young Sheldon, and by most accounts, it’s been a rip-roaring success with the show now entering its seventh and final season on CBS. Given the show is on Netflix? Will season 7 be coming to Netflix?
If we rewind just a few years, Young Sheldon wasn’t even part of the Netflix lineup globally. That’s changed, however, with now practically every region streaming the sitcom series, with many also continuing to stream the main mothership series, The Big Bang Theory.
Some of the earliest countries to pick up the show were back in 2021, with Australia and the United Kingdom picking up the show, which continued with more regions getting it in 2022 and 2023.
The United States was the latest to receive the show, with seasons 1 through 5 touching down in November 2023 and season 6 being added in February 2024 ahead of season 7 beginning its run on CBS.
The rights for this show are particularly complicated and are seemingly done on a region-by-region basis. Hence, everything below is subject to change, and we’ll be keeping you posted on more as and when we get it.
When will Young Sheldon Season 7 be on CBS?
Season 7 of Young Sheldon began its run on CBS starting February 15th, 2024, with new episodes premiering on Thursdays. It’ll consist of a shorter 14-episode season with the current finale date planned for May 16th, 2024.
When will Young Sheldon Season 7 be on Netflix US?
In the United States, there’s not been a pattern to new seasons coming to the service thus far, given it’s all happened within the last few months.
Max, which also streams the show, has been getting new seasons streaming each September. Flixable reports that the most recent season was added to Max in September 2023, for example.
Also, typically, with licensed network shows in the US, we find that you have to wait around a year after the show from when the first episode aired to come to Netflix or that they drop shortly before new seasons start their run on broadcast. That obviously won’t be the case with Young Sheldon, given that season 7 is the last.
Given all this, we can only predict that Netflix US will receive the show sometime between September 2024 and May 2025. Coincidentally – the current removal date for Young Sheldon in the US is set for May 2025, so it could be much closer to the end of that window provided.
Until Young Sheldon season 7 hits Netflix, you can watch the new episodes on Paramount+ soon after they air on CBS.
When will Young Sheldon Season 7 be on Netflix Internationally?
Most regions of Netflix have been picking up the latest seasons of Young Sheldon every September. That includes Canada and Australia, so going by previous years, you should be streaming season 7 of the show as soon as September 2024.
In countries like the United Kingdom – you’ve had to wait around a full year for new seasons to drop onto the service. In that case, you can expect it to arrive in May 2025, with season 6 expected in May 2024.
