Heartland is one of the longest-running Canadian shows, premiering in 2007 with its first season on CBC Television in Canada and reaching the U.S. audience through broadcast syndication. The television series has blessed the industry with eighteen seasons so far, and the filming of the nineteenth season began in May 2025. After garnering a huge fan base through Netflix in the U.S., it seems the television series is set to leave the streaming platform. So, is the news true? Well, let’s find out if Heartland is truly leaving Netflix.
Is Heartland Leaving Netflix?
Yes, Heartland is leaving Netflix on August 1, 2025. Heartland has been on Netflix since 2010, with seasons 1 through 16 available. However, it seems the 17th and the 18th seasons will not get a chance to cater to the Netflix subscribers in the U.S. That’s because the television series will leave the streaming platform on August 1, 2025. The show made some loyal fans who are extremely disappointed with the news. An X user wrote, ‘Huge mistake to remove Heartland from the US lineup. It’s the best show on your network and has billions of viewers. Cough up the money and keep streaming! You surely will lose subscribers if you don’t.’ There are more fans who want the show to stay as it has become a part of their daily lives.’
Why Is Heartland Leaving Netflix?
Being one of the longest-running shows, Heartland has allowed us to witness the aging process of the characters, just like FRIENDS. Therefore, it’s clear that fans aren’t ready for the change. However, no one can do anything about it, as according to a What’s on Netflix representative who had a support chat with the streaming service, some titles are bound to leave Netflix due to licensing agreements. He reveals:
‘Netflix licenses TV shows and movies from studios around the world. Although we strive to keep the titles you want to watch, some titles may leave Netflix due to licensing agreements. Whenever a TV show or movie license is expiring, we consider things such as: If the rights to the title are still available, how popular it is in a region, and how much it costs to license.’
Where Will Heartland Stream After Leaving Netflix?
Well, the show is leaving Netflix, but you can still stream it on UP Faith & Family, which offers basic service for $5.99 per month or $59.99 per year to subscribers.
