Netflix was the global home to all four seasons of the often-overlooked comedy series Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, airing on The CW between 2015 and 2019. The series won’t be on Netflix forever, however with some regions already seen 

Created by Rachel Bloom and Aline Brosh McKenna, the comedy, which stars Bloom as Rebecca Bunch, saw four seasons of her character finding her way in life after following an old high school boyfriend across the country.

The show acquired numerous awards over the years, including Golden Globes, Emmys, and more.

When will Crazy Ex-Girlfriend leave Netflix in the US?

The question of when the series will depart came up recently on Reddit and we’ve also received a couple of emails asking similar questions. So let’s try and answer the question, when will Crazy Ex-Girlfriend leave?

We’ve covered this for other The CW shows, but effectively, Netflix licenses the show for the lifetime and then for a number of years thereafter.

The number of years thereafter will differ, with the US having the longest stint (at least based on prior departures).

In the United States, titles typically stay on Netflix for five years after the final season’s release.

Season 4 of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend arrived on Netflix on April 13th, 2019, meaning that you can expect it to depart in April 2024. Our newest intel suggests it could be leaving Netflix US as late as September 6th, 2024.

When will Crazy Ex-Girlfriend leave Netflix Internationally?

Outside the US, we are already seeing dozens of regions lose the series already.

That follows the trend with titles like The Vampire Diaries expiring in its first window (Netflix went on to relicense the series in most regions) after 3 years, meaning that you can probably expect it to depart in late 2021 or April 2022.

In the case of Netflix UK, they lost the show on October 13th, 2022, and in Netflix Australia, they lost the show on September 30th, 2023.


Where will Crazy Ex-Girlfriend stream after leaving Netflix?

That’s not known currently. The show is a joint co-production between CBS and Warner Bros., so it could go to both Paramount+ and HBO Max or be sold elsewhere entirely.

In the case of the United Kingdom, JustWatch reports that the show now resides on ITVX.

Of course, buying a physical box set is one of the safest options to ensure you have permanent access to the show in the future.
