Ryan Murphy’s list of series – dubbed the Murphyverse by fans – has accumulated many an iconic show from Glee to American Horror Story. One of his most beloved ventures, crafted alongside long-time collaborators Brad Falchuk and Tim Minear, is 9-1-1, a procedural drama centered on Los Angeles first responders’ professional and personal lives. Debuting in 2018, the show would find enormous success on Fox, although ultimately, it would face cancelation in 2023.
Thankfully, ABC swooped in and saved the day, renewing the series for a seventh outing. That seventh outing was received with plenty of praise, showcasing just how much gas 9-1-1 had left in its ambulance tank. Because of this, ABC made the intelligent decision to renew once again, with Season 8 now right around the corner. So, with that in mind, here’s a look at exactly where you can watch 9-1-1 Season 8.
When is ‘9-1-1’ Season 8 Coming Out?
Is ‘9-1-1’ Season 8 Premiering on TV?
As is expected, 9-1-1 will be returning for Season 8 on ABC. 9-1-1 isn’t the only eye-catching addition to ABC’s lineup on that very day, with Grey’s Anatomy returning for Season 21 and brand-new drama series Doctor Odyssey debuting. For ABC fans, it can’t get much bigger than Thursday, September 26.
Is ‘9-1-1’ Season 8 on Streaming?
Yet again, fans who can’t catch 9-1-1 live will have the chance to stream episodes on Hulu the day after they air. Currently, all episodes of the series are available to watch on Hulu.
For those without a subscription who will need one to catch the return of LA’s favorite first responders, Hulu is available for $7.99 per month on an ad-based plan or $17.99 per month on an ad-free plan. Alternatively, students can get Hulu, with ads, for just $1.99 per month. Check out the link below for more details on Hulu’s pricing structure:

The first official promotional hint at what viewers can expect from Season 8 came with the teaser announcing the release date, as a swarm of bees drowns the sound of sirens and floods the image. This, of course, created a buzz among fans, with many excited to see the return of the stinging creatures following their use in a Season 6 story that saw no main characters as victims. Now, and also thanks to some promotional images, we know they will become the main emergency for the opening episodes of Season 8.
In an Instagram Reel posted in early August, Oliver Stark, the man behind fan-favorite Evan “Buck” Buckley, shared an update on the production status that gave fans their next promotional glimpse at what to expect from Season 8. “Hello, guys,” Stark begins, “I just wanted to send you a quick message and say we’re here, we’re back in production. We’re very excited to be making the show again, and we’re very excited to get ready for September 26. Tune in!” Stark is then interrupted by Eddie Diaz’s Ryan Guzman, with the actor boasting a new mustache-based look that suggests Eddie is changing in Season 8 as he adjusts to life without his son in the house.
