‘9-1-1’ Season 7 Release Window, Cast, Plot, and More

Despite the surprising cancellation of 9-1-1 by Fox, fans will be happy to know that the show has found a new home on ABC and will live to see its seventh season.

Starring the legendary Angela Bassett, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Peter Krause, the show chronicles the lives of America’s toughest and most devoted first responders. Season 7 has been ordered and will be delivered in spring 2024, so here’s everything we know about it, including the premiere date, cast of actors, plot, the new network, and more.

Where can I watch 9-1-1 season 7?

The hit series has now moved to ABC, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given that both Fox and ABC are owned by The Walt Disney Company. Hulu will almost certainly get the next season as well, as ABC uses the same distribution mechanism for all seasons and episodes.

The Hollywood Reporter confirmed in early May that this change was first and foremost a financial decision as Fox was paying more than $9 million per episode for the show. This high price tag wasn’t worth it, despite it being the No. 1 broadcast drama in the adults 18-49 demographic. However, Fox has renewed spin-off 9-1-1: Lone Star for season 5, for which it only pays between $6 million and $7 million per episode.

When is 9-1-1 season 7 releasing on ABC?

9-1-1 season 7 will premiere on March 14, 2024, as was unveiled in ABC’s official 2023-2024 television schedule in May. How many episodes will be in the upcoming season of 9-1-1 is unknown at this time. Due to the strike delays, the next season may be shorter than usual (previous seasons typically featured 18 episodes). The move to ABC in May 2023, right before the SAG-AFTRA strikes, caused further delays to the release schedule.
