The global fanbase was taken aback when Amazon revealed that Neighbours, which had recently been revived by the streaming service, would be concluding once again, only two years later.
Initially, Channel 5 decided to end the soap, but later Amazon Freevee brought it back to life. As of December 2025, the soap will be taking a break, and it’s uncertain what led to this decision.
Currently, Jason Herbson from “Neighbours” has explained the reason behind the series’ cancellation, even though it maintains high ratings and received its inaugural Daytime Emmy Award nomination.
Our show was highly successful on Amazon Freevee, and we are deeply appreciative of their role in this period spanning nearly three years,” Herbison expressed to TV Tonight.
“The team at Amazon Freevee did an incredible job of launching us over there. I think we were on bus stops all across the UK, it was amazing and they have been wonderful to work with.”
Towards the end of last year, Amazon Freevee was shut down and Herbison noted that the closure of the ad-supported streamer “did change the landscape” as the soap was “just not simply part of their [Prime Video] content strategy going forward”.
“And there’s really no hard feelings with that,” he told the publication. “Things change and as I say, we’re just very grateful to them to have had this chapter.”
The finale of the show is approaching as it celebrates its 40th anniversary, with Herbison hinting that the last episode will have a unique twist.
“I certainly wouldn’t want to repeat myself – that was a great finale, I loved writing that episode,” Herbison told 10 News First. “It was incredible that everyone came back for it. I don’t know, I think this time around it would be a little bit of a different tone.
“But just as we said before, we were resting the show, we do see Neighbours as eternal. Who knows about the future? So I think whatever ending, it will be a door left open kind of ending again.”
