It's hard to believe that The Neighborhood first premiered in primetime back in October 2018 and now is getting ready to air The Neighborhood season 7. 

The comedy duo of Cedric the Entertainer and Max Greenfield has proven to be a winning combination for fans who can't get enough of seeing the once-just neighbors develop into unlikely best friends. Joined by other TV veterans like Tichina Arnold and Beth Behrs, the series has managed to take viewers on quite the journey over the years and looks to continue to do so in new episodes. 

Here's everything we know about The Neighborhood season 7. 

The Neighborhood season 7 release date

With The Neighborhood season 6 having just wrapped on Monday, May 6, we're a long way from seeing episodes for season 7. However, as release information for the new season becomes available, we'll pass along the update. What we do know, is that when new episodes do air, they will do so on Mondays at 8 pm ET/PT on CBS in fall 2024. 

For those without traditional cable/satellite television, CBS is available through a number of live TV streaming services such as Fubo, Hulu with Live TV and YouTube TV. Paramount Plus with Showtime subscribers and subscribers to the CBS app also have the opportunity to watch episodes live as they air. Additionally, new episodes become available to stream the day after they air for Paramount Plus Essential subscribers. 

We don't have release information about when season 7 episodes become available in the UK, but seasons 1-5 are available on channel E4. 

The Neighborhood season 7 plot

Specific details for the new season are not yet available. However, at the core of the series is a comedy about what happens when two people from different worlds become unlikely friends. Here is an official overview of the series: 

"The Neighborhood stars Cedric the Entertainer in a comedy about what happens when the friendliest guy in the Midwest moves his family to a neighborhood in Los Angeles where not everyone looks like him or appreciates his extreme neighborliness. 

"Dave Johnson is a good-natured, professional conflict negotiator. When his wife, Gemma, gets a job as a school principal in L.A., they move from Michigan with their young son, Grover, unfazed that their new dream home is located in a community quite different from their small town. Their opinionated next-door neighbor, Calvin Butler, is wary of the newcomers, certain that the Johnsons will disrupt the culture on the block.

"However, Calvin's gracious wife, Tina, rolls out the welcome wagon; their chipper younger son, Marty, thinks the Johnsons could be good for the community; and their older son, Malcolm, finds Dave may finally be someone who understands him. Dave realizes that fitting into their new community is more complex than he expected, but if he can find a way to connect with Calvin, they have an excellent chance of making their new neighborhood their home."
