After eight seasons on CBS, fans are getting ready to say goodbye to The Neighborhood.
The Neighborhood is scheduled to conclude with its series finale on May 18. Beth Behrs took to social media one month prior to mark the end of an era for the cast and crew.
“Playing Gemma for eight years — through marriage, global pandemics, two strikes, motherhood and all the other bits of life — has been an absolute gift, and that is thanks to this incredible cast and crew,” Behrs, 40, wrote in her caption.
She continued: “Laughing with you every single day has brought me immense joy. And thank you to all of you who watched us on CBS all these years. We are so grateful! THAT’S A WRAP!”
In the social media post, the actress shared a glimpse of a wedding and a house being packed up.
The Neighborhood premiered in 2018 and followed a white Midwestern family adjusting after moving into a predominantly Black neighborhood in California. In addition to Behrs, the show stars Cedric the Entertainer, Max Greenfield, Tichina Arnold, Sheaun McKinney and Marcel Spears.
CBS confirmed in 2025 that The Neighborhood was renewed for an eighth and final season. Greenfield later spoke to Us about choosing to look for a silver lining.
“The truth of the matter is this will be our eighth and final season. When you look around, there’s so few … there’s no shows that go eight seasons anymore and there may never be another one. We might be the last one,” Greenfield, 46, told Us last year. “So I’m genuinely not sad at all that this is ending and feel so grateful for the eight seasons that we were given. We’ve been through so much together. This show has made it through a pandemic. This show has made it through multiple writers and actor strikes. It’s been a real roller-coaster.”
Greenfield teased at the time that The Neighborhood is going out on a high.
“To have made it this far and to be in the position we’re at is just such a wonderful gift,” he continued. “And the ability to say goodbye in the way that we all want to, it is great. So I’m really excited to have a fun last season where everybody knows what the fate of the show is and have a good time with the people that I have already had such a good time with for the last seven-plus years.”
Cedric the Entertainer, 61, also reflected on the sitcom’s cancellation following ups and downs behind the scenes.
“On this particular show, we had to go through a number of adversities that were different from just a TV show,” Cedric the Entertainer told Us in May 2025. “There were the [WGA and SAG-AFTRA] strikes and COVID. There’s been so many challenges that [it comes down to], ‘How do you keep a show together? How do you keep a cast together? How do you keep everybody motivated?’”
There were creative shakeups as well. “A lot of executive producers — we had to switch the writers a lot,” Cedric the Entertainer explained. “I think that the biggest thing I learned is this idea of staying steady, staying focused and understanding that through adversity is an opportunity for a bigger and greater win.”
He continued: “You gotta trust that a lot of times — sometimes you see it as all tragedy, it’s happening — but sometimes it’s trusting the idea that the win is actually on the other side of it. If you can dig through it. That’s what I’ve learned the most.”
Greenfield, for his part, said the cast was focused on delivering the best possible ending for fans who followed along from the start.
“We do know that we want to have something that feels final for the audience, that the audience that loves the show, that loves us coming into their house every week. We want them to really enjoy this,” the New Girl alum told Us. “We don’t want to have that kind of Game of Thrones ending where everybody is like, ‘That’s some bulls***.’ That’s the biggest thing we working on, is a good finish so that our audience goes, ‘That was good.’”
The Neighborhood airs on CBS Mondays at 8 p.m. ET before streaming the next day on Paramount+.
