The Neighborhood has finally returned in the 2026 TV schedule after a long winter hiatus, but the end is nigh for the sitcom. CBS confirmed last year that the eighth season would be the last. While that was bad news for fans hoping for Season 9 and beyond, it allowed the show a full season to build up to a (hopefully) fitting finale. For Beth Behrs, it was her second hit CBS sitcom in a row, and 2 Broke Girls showrunner Michael Patrick King reflected on the audition that originally made her a network TV comedy star.
The Neighborhood was actually stacked with sitcom stars when it premiered, including Cedric the Entertainer, New Girl's Max Greenfield, Everybody Hates Chris' Tichina Arnold, and of course 2 Broke Girls' Beth Behrs as Gemma. It extended Behrs' time on CBS after six seasons of 2 Broke Girls, starting in 2011 opposite Kat Dennings. When The Neighborhood ends later this year, it'll mark the end of a 15-year run on the network for Behrs. (You can stream The Neighborhood with a Paramount+ subscription now.)
