Friends and The Big Bang Theory set to leave Netflix UK – and it’s happening very soon

Beloved sitcoms Friends and The Big Bang Theory will be leaving Netflix in the UK this month.

These popular shows have been available on the streaming service for a long time, but all seasons will only be available for a few more days.

The shows will be leaving the streamer due to the expiration of licensing agreements.

All ten seasons of the TV show Friends will no longer be available on Netflix in the UK after December 30th, 2018. It first became available on the platform in 2018.

The popular show The Big Bang Theory is leaving the streaming service on January 27th. It first became available in February 2016, with new seasons added each year until the series finale in 2019.

I absolutely loved watching Friends! It was all about six people in their twenties and thirties navigating life together in New York City, and it originally aired from 1994 to 2004. It really captured what it was like to be figuring things out as a young adult.

The show featured a talented ensemble cast including Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Matt Le Blanc, and the beloved Matthew Perry, who sadly passed away.

The Big Bang Theory was a popular sitcom that aired from 2007 to 2019. It featured a talented cast including Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Simon Helberg, Kunal Nayyar, Mayim Bialik, and Melissa Rauch.

The show centered around four scientists who weren’t great with social situations, and the friend who lived next door, as they dealt with work and relationships – or the absence of them.

Both shows achieved great success, winning many awards and becoming all-time favorites among sitcom viewers.

Both series maintained cult followings well after their series finales.

Although The Big Bang Theory finished in 2019, it remains incredibly popular, leading to two new shows: Young Sheldon and Georgy & Mandy’s First Marriage.

Another installment is coming soon: Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, which started production in September.

Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus, Brian Posehn, and John Ross Bowie will all return as their characters Stuart, Denise, Bert, and Barry in the new spin-off series.
