‘SEAL Team’s David Boreanaz on Moving to Paramount+: ‘It’s Going to Be a Good Challenge’
Q&A
SEAL Team is moving over to Paramount+ for its fifth season (after airing four episodes on CBS in fall 2021), and while much is in flux about what that means, series star and executive producer David Boreanaz (who plays Bravo 1, Jason Hayes) is excited about what’s next.
“The four episodes that we have on at CBS will be a great launching pad into the new world of streaming, and I know we’ll be able to take our show to a deeper, darker place as far as storytelling is concerned,” he tells TV Insider. “I’m excited about that, and it’s going to be a good challenge for us, and I know that the cast and the crew are up for that.”
While nothing is confirmed, Boreanaz does say that he’ll be directing more. (He’s already been behind the camera for four episodes of the military drama.)
Read on for more from Boreanaz as he looks ahead to SEAL Team on Paramount+.
Will the move change the approach to the series at all?
David Boreanaz: I think that the approach will be the same, to be honest with you. We will premiere on premiere week for [the first] four episodes. The biggest difference is that obviously in the streaming world, there are no commercials, so we could tell our stories a lot better, I think. That’s not to say we are not doing a good job of doing that now. I don’t want to say that it’s going to be completely different, but we’re going to be able to go a little bit deeper and darker and lighter in a lot of areas. You have the ability to be a little bit more creative and you definitely have more screen time. We’re looking at probably 18 more minutes of show time there.
Sonja Flemming/CBS
So the episodes are going to be longer? You won’t be sticking to the 40 or so minutes?
All of that stuff is kind of in motion for us now since we’re so new to this transition. We’re kind of in transition right now.
Is there anything that you’re looking forward to being able to do over on streaming that you couldn’t on CBS?
Standards and practices, obviously, is kind of a handcuff on network television. I’m proud of the show and the character and what Jason Hayes has accomplished. And I look forward to telling more stories and I’ve always said it’s good to go to the darker places and open and shed light into them so it can help these real men and women that are suffering, whether it’s PTSD or TBI. With a show like this, especially military shows, it’s a shame that it’s not recognized across the board from the people that are the voters and the Emmys and whatnot. I just feel like they don’t look at military shows, and I think that’s sad. I’m so proud of the crew and the cast and everybody who works on the show and it’s a shame that gets overlooked. But that’s the way it is, I think, in Hollywood.
CBS
Because you do tackle these serious topics and have these emotional moments with the team members and the action scenes in the episodes.
The episode I directed last week was so challenging, and I look at the work that we did there and the amount of work we did with helicopters and especially with this season finale, what [director] Chris [Chulack] did, and what J. Michael Muro does. I could take the show and you give me your top five shows on a network right now, and I’ll tell you we’ll compete and beat those shows straight out, as far as quality is concerned. Now you want quantity, I guess, network television is about quantity and it’s no disrespect to that at all. I love network television. I think the challenge of network television is being able to push the boundaries and be creative in that aspect. And our show really has gone above and beyond as far as marrying the action and how real that is with the emotional arcs that our characters have undertaken and where they’ve taken us for four seasons. So I’m proud of that.
Have you talked about episode count for Season 5 because of this transition?
The episode count for streaming shows is always 10 episodes. The network has given us four episodes as a launching pad into that streaming world. The environment will dictate the number of episodes that are ordered.
Sonja Flemming/CBS
What are you hoping to explore with Jason next season?
I’m looking forward to [seeing] where he stands, especially with his children on top of where he is as a leader, becoming that true Jedi that is almost wiser and better emotionally and physically, and being able to use that as a sounding board to listen to his team members and his brothers, [with] what adversities they may be going through and how he can relate to that.

Not at all happy about this. Have watched the show from day one and it was one of only two network shows I still watched and the other is in it's final episode this week and now I can no longer watch SEAL Team. Very disappointing. My utility costs have all gone up n recent months, so I am not paying to watch this show.

Sorry CBS, BIG MISTAKE. You could move Evil, but leave Seals where it was. This series needs to be left on CBS. Take one of your gothic or alien series to streaming. Watched this series from the beginning and related so much to some of the stories.

Not happy at all , we don't have paramount + its bad enough that we have to pay for sky and Netflix, we've thoroughly enjoyed watching seal team and are thoroughly disappointed thats its moved to yet another channel that you have to pay for.

Highly disappointed with this decision. Create new shows to put on your streaming service, don't take away shows we like. I guess loyal viewers mean nothing to you. You should be ashamed of yourselves. I've been loyal to CBS for a long time, but I am rethinking that decision.

Very disappointed cannot stream due to lack of insufficient internet service. Rual areas do not have that option. Plus TV entertainment has become to expensive.

I love Seal Team and all the cast are great. Unfortunately like many I can't afford it. I will miss them greatly as I am a widow of a Viet Nam Vet and hold all military close to my heart

As a retired military veteran and from a family of military veterans, I am really disappointed in this decision. I am on a pension and scrimp on groceries to afford tv. I cannot afford to sign up for another streaming service. Really sad, I really enjoyed Seal Team and have watched every episode multiple times but now it’s done for me.

G
OMG!! Another great show we can no longer see, going to to yet another streaming service the average viewer can’t afford. Thanks a lot networks for letting your fan base down! I’m afraid the time is coming when only the very rich will be able to watch TV, because they’ll be the only viewers who can afford to pay for all these network streaming services!!

I’ve watched Seal Team since the beginning, it’s my favorite show; and one of the few network shows that feels real. It brings well deserved attention to the honor, strength and sacrifice of our military heroes. The stupid, silly sitcoms in no way compare to the writing and acting of Seal Team. I will figure out a way to continue watching in the Fall, but shame on CBS for moving a show of this caliber to streaming.

O
I'm disappointed. I enjoy the character development, actors' chemistry and story lines of Seal Team. But this is the reality of a competitive market and I pay enough for the TV packages I have chosen. So I'll choose to leave this show in the rear-view mirror.

A must see show. Enables a greater appreciation of the sacrifice and

I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED. I'VE BEEN A FAN SINCE DAY ONE. HAVEN'T MISSED A SHOW. THE STORIES, THE ACTION, THE ACTORS, ALL GREAT. WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS. SO MANY FANS WILL BE LOST BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE PARAMOUNT +. THIS HAS TO BE FOR PROFIT. IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT GREED.

😱I deeply saddened that all these PLUS stations buying all the shows to make money! Shame on you CBS and DISNEY for making people pay for coming out of pandemic to watch shows they started before pandemic. Shame on CBS and DISNEY.... SHAME SHAME SHAME, YOU HAVE LOST A NAME!🐋🐋🐋🐋🐋

I too am a Veteran of the Viet Nam war. As a Navy Corpsman I was attached to the Marines. As such I could relate to this show and appreciated how it was presented realistically. Unfortunately, Cable costs, medical bills and other utilities are 60 % of my income. We cant afford streaming anything.

The interviewer should've asked David if he's thought about the pros of being able to tell a more in depth story on a streaming service versus the cons of telling that story to a much smaller audience due to the lack of people that will subscribe to see the show.

We have enjoyed this show from day one. Sorry to see you go. I will not pay more for CBS shows than I am already paying for my cable. Poor decision.

We are very disappointed in CBS's decision to move SEAL Team to streaming after 4 episodes. This leaves seniors at a disadvantage for income reasons. We already pay enough for "regular" cable. The excuse (in TV Guide) of addressing issues such as PTSD and brain trauma is baloney. You can have issues without being in the military and it would make more sense to reach as many people as you can. Please, please reconsider this decision CBS. We are big fans of the show and have watched since day one.oni

One of our favorite shows. Not everyone can just go to streaming. Sad we won’t be able to watch it anymore.
13

B
I have watched from the beginning and I love David Boreanaz but I will not go to streaming. They don't think about their followers who can't afford to get it on top of cable. Right now with the after effects from pandemic money is extremely tight for us. Guess eventually all ho to streaming then I can cancel cable.
13

C
They should of not moved it. Me and my husband watch from the beginning and cable is already to expensive to be adding stuff I guess I saw the last Episode and that sucks
13

I love the show, have watched every episode now they want me to pay even more for another streaming service after my tv service increased it's monthly fee? Nope sorry, already paying for 150 channels I don't watch!

If they thought ratings were bad on network TV, streaming will be substantially worse

Why do all the good series end up streaming, I've got netflix but can't afford any other streaming

Wow. Very disappointed that Seal Team is moving from CBS. My utility costs have gone up and like many others, I'm not going to pay to watch a show that could have stayed with a major network. Have also watched the show from the first episode..

I've watched from the beginning and now it will be over for me. Not paying extra to watch. So long ..

Boreanaz is being polite. The show is too honest and not PC enough for the networks. I was surprised they made it 4 seasons telling truth. The show will be sorely missed.

This is my absolute favorite show, watched from the beginning: Great acting, gripping narratives, very uplifting to see our SEALS respected and shown for the incredible bravery, strategic intelligence, and commitment they have. Very disappointed it’s moving to streaming (extra cost). I assume the current (anti-military, anti-alpha male) political climate was a major factor; Shame on CBS. This show is inspirational! It embodies core values and principles, like supreme mental and physical fitness, strong work ethic guided by service, loyalty to country and team, willingness to sacrifice for benefit and safety of others….such important themes that should be given maximum exposure.

I have watched from the beginning. I only watch two shows regularly seal team and ncis. I am not going to pay more to stream. I wished it was staying on network. T.v. getting too expensive.

I, too, have watched this show since conception and I am also very disappointed that CBS is dropping it from its lineup after season 4. I can understand why Boreanaz and his people decided to switch to streaming the series since it gives them the freedom as artist to expand on their creative acting abilities and stories told. And, also to not be prohibited by CBS standards. Yes, it will cost us to watch, if one can afford it, but isn't capitalism the way of the world? A lose for those who cannot afford the streaming cost to watch how men and women of our military are depicted in real life senarios by exceptional actors.

I am SO very disappointed in the CBS decision to move Seal Team to a venue which would cost us more money to watch. I loved this show and watched from day 1. However, I'm saddened to say that there is no way I can afford to pay extra to stream this show. My cable bill is already over $200 a month for basic cable and as a retiree, I'm thinking about cutting the cord if this is going to keep happening. How dare you CBS!!! You should be ashamed for treating loyal watchers in this manner.

Hey Guys, I know you have to wait a while, but ALOT of these TV Show Seasons Come Out on DVD and are available FOR FREE from your Local Library, Our Library even is starting to carry some Video Games! Check it out.

Love the show and never miss it. Will watch the reruns also. But I am not adding another streaming service. I have an antenna for the local stuff, but I cannot afford any more charges just to watch TV. It may come to Netflix only.

G
Seal Team is the best CBS show. Now we have to pay for Paramount + for a couple of shows we are already paying for with cable/satellite. I am retired and can't afford streaming services, let alone the internet services required. CBS says they want to bring in younger audiences, ya think seal team will do that, not likely. Just plain greed.

-
O
I too am very very unhappy well that's not quite true....I'm damn right MAD about the movie to paramount +. I've watched this program since day one! I am on Social Security and have limited funds and pay an enormous amount of money to watch tv as it is now they have all these + stations that charge extra! I barely am able to pay my tv bill! I'm sure I'm not the only one in this situation and I'm sure they are mad as hell to!!!

B
Our whole family is disappointed as we cannot keep paying for more and more streaming services. We regular followers for the last four seasons are being abandoned and we are the ones who made your series a huge success. I will watch the first four, but count us out of paying for the rest of your season. So sad..
2

O
I think it "sucks"

NOT HAPPY!!!!! I have been a loyal viewer from day 1 now your taking it away you don't even consider those of us who don't or can't stream thanks for taking a great show from us

I think it is terrible that Seal Team is going away from CBS and again another show that will be cancelled because people will not go for more money on another streaming network. I love the show but cannot pay and will not pay for it. So I guess it is GOOD BYE!!

O
Will miss Seal Team. One of our favorite shows, but yet another one going to streaming. We are in an area that doesn’t have good internet service, so streaming won’t work for us. Guess they want to use ‘saltier’ language in their show so have to move to a different channel. Our household doesn’t use saltier language (I’m sure they want to use the F word more often) so that why they are moving. Not everyone uses that in normal everyday conversation. I hope Seal Team’s ratings plummet like Biden’s!

Why even show the first four on cbs???? and then switch networks????will not follow

Guess we won't be watching. Sad cause we've watched from the beginning. Don't force more streaming services on us. Sorry but seal team doesn't warrant another streaming cost and service. You are dead in the water.

Dad to say I will have to give up Seal Team after it exits CBS. I refuse to pay for streaming services after I pay my high fees for Comcast. Very disappointing.

Very disappointed we don't get to watch Seal Team. My husband was in Vietnam and Seal Team connected with him since he has PTSD. It's crazy we get to watch 4 or 5 episodes then gone outrages. See the beginning and no end!! Watched from the beginning show began, how can they do that to people that can't afford to pay, we pay enough now.

O
Just another example of network greed. Seal Team has been one of the few shows on TV that actually has a good storyline without the "PC" bull. Living where free over the air TV is not an option, I am forced to pay for cable/satellite tv, now we are being FORCED into streaming. Add up all the streaming services needed to get the same stations and you are paying more for no advantages. Just my thoughts. IT SUX!

This is a great show! Terrific storytelling and diversity of characters. A fan from the beginning. Very disappointed in having to pay for addl streaming services. All of these extra channels are just too expensive to add. I doubt I will subscribe and I will really miss this show! (Had to give up Chip and Joanna too.) Sad the networks don't appreciate us fans.

Again, my prediction is: one major change will be the addition of cursing. But that alone won't make the show successful on streaming. (*cough*DesignatedSurvivor*cough*)

Thought this series was cancelled.
What a s#t $ grab to switch it to a paid station. I've watched series since day #1.
Its always about $$ & ratings. Well I'm sure your rating won't be ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ anymore as millions don't have extra coin to pay for a speciality channel. More greed by big Corporations. 100% disgusted, disappointed.
-
O
I usually avoid sad or nail biting shows but my husband got me hooked on Seals from the beginning. We look forward to our evening binge together. HOWEVER, we are very unhappy with the addition of the foul language that seems to be spewing from every character. If this trend continues in Season 6 we will stop watching. That language does not add to the excellent story lines we have enjoyed so far.
-
R
I could not agree more, evil should go
-
R
I love seal team but I will not pay to watch it. It should have stayed with cbs
-

I think Seal Team was a good show. Typical CBS get you hooked then move it to a pay to play network. I’m done with ST and CBS.
-
R
Haven't anyone of you heard of IPTV? I haven't paid for cable Tv for 5 years and I get every single channel. All you need is internet which I pay alone over 70.00. I refuse to pay for streaming all these Netflix, Hulu...etc.....I get every single thing that on all those streaming services...all on IPTV...Look it up...IPTV
-
C
Many have said before me it is saddening to see such a fine show move away from so many of it’s fans. While I can appreciate much of what Boreanaz said in the article the fact is that many veterans such as I am appreciated the show for it’s realistic presentation of modern warfare. It was the one who that I looked forward to and took special steps to be sure i could see it. Like the others I do not have streaming capability and do not expect have it for some time into the future. For the sake of the fine cast and production crew I wish you well in spite of my personal disappointment.
-
G
We, my wife and I, love the show. If it wasn't streamed we wouldn't have seen it. I refuse to watch commercial TV because of the brain dead advertising. We are paying about $10 a month for this show and others. If I didn't watch selective sports on commercial TV I would do only streaming.
I hope Paramount + runs with this show!
-
G
Lol very sad indeed...but let's get real for a second this has nothing to do with being PC or being able to tell darker stories, its all about lining your pockets. Disgusting if u ask me.
-
P
I too live in a rural area with satalite internet...lousey service. Am unable to watch many streaming services.
I've lived watching this show and am Very Disappointed in this move.
-
R
I think it is time to boycott all net works I'm sure you have plenty of videos without buying more just watch them for a week or two and see how fast the networks listen to the little people. Or go to the park or picnic or read there is so much we can do if we all pull together
-
R
We need to boycott all tv and remind them how they make money by us watching
-
B
When I read that CBS was dropping this show, I was deeply saddened. This is my favorite show, and one of my husband's favorites. With just social security, we cannot afford to pay for streaming in addition to DirecTV.
-
C
Another favorite show I won't be watching. Guess I'll be reading more books.
-
O
Sad, already over pay for cable, netflix, prime
I am not going to start shelling out for all these + streaming channels..
Used to be one of our favorite shows
-
G
Very disappointed that Seal Team is going to Paramount +. We don’t have internet in our rural area. Have been watching from the beginning. Both my daughter and her husband have and is serving our country. This show gave us a sense of pride for all our brave men and women who have served and given their lives for our country. Great acting. Will miss you all from Michigan.
-
R
Very disappointed That season 5 will be streaming can't afford it on a fixed income been a fun sense it began sand now I can't watch this is wrong on all counts
-
G
I am not going to subscribe to a streaming service; just not in my budget. I will just treat it as if the show was cancelled, which essentially it is to me. Extremely disappointed. I have been a fan since season 1.
-
P
Very disappointed about this move. I don't watch TV on a computer, tablet or a cell phone, period. I watch it on a television set hooked up to cable TV. Now I can't watch Seal Team any more. I wonder if they have taken in to consideration how many fans and viewers THEY ARE LOSING I'M ONE OF THEM. The End (unfortunately.) Good Bye Seal team.
-
R
I love this show. I too am sad it is moving to Paramount plus. My internet service is very weak in my area so watching on Paramount is not an option for me.
-
O
very disappointed. watched you since the beginning,i just watch reg tv. don't get all the extra stuff to much $. So you just drop us.
-
G
Seal Team is my favorite show. I cannot believe that I have to pay more money to be able to watch it. I already pay almost $200/mo for cable tv and most of the time there isn't much to watch. Atleast I had Sunday nights with Seal Team to look forward to. Not any more. Extremely disappointing.
-
O
Seal team is dead to me now. I watched it from the very beginning but will not sign up for another pay to view service.
-
B
Miffed, They will loose Fans. It will soon be cancelled.Then they will try to bring back to Prime time and we will be watching something else. Not paying for Another Streaming Service. If everyone stop ordering. Streaming can become extinct.
-
O
I’ve been a constant viewer of seal team since day one. Up until now I love the show. However, this touchy-feely more gentle and kinder dialogue they seem to be into it’s definitely a turn off for me. What happened to the original writers who had storylines with “kicking butt and taking names? I now they’re sitting around because in their feelings? What’s next yoga and Pilates? If this is how showtime is going to continue there is no way I’m going to continue watching them. You might want to change the name of the show the Girl Scouts of America! I’m very, very disappointed.
-
R
Someone will pay them a lot more $$$'s
That's the bottom line is money not the followers on CBS.
I'm won't buy the service.
-
G
The Network doesn't want it to succeed.
But will leave it on Paramount as long as Fans are willing to pay.
These kind of Shows are watched by undisirebles as far as they're concerned.
There is no support for Patriotic TV in this Country any more.
-
B
I to will not be going forward with Paramont. I pay for Direct tv now the industry wants you to pay for that and then pay again for certain shows and that list is growing. TV is just becoming too expensive..
-
O
Cancel cable and switch to all streaming. Probably would save money as well as you can pick and choose what you want. I have Netflix, Disney +, ESPN, Hulu, Paramount Plus, HBO Max, and Peacock all for about $100 a month
-
O
Cancel the trash that is Netflix and get Paramount Plus. Actually saves you around $60 a year
-
O
You got Biden to thank for the utility costs
-
R
Very disappointed. Will have to say goodbye to Seal Team.
-
G
Like all these others, this is all about squeezing more money out of viewers. Well, baseball went on strike more than once years ago and what I learned while they were squeezing more money was that I had LOTS better things to accomplish in the time I had been using to watch. Time for that lesson again.
-
R
I agree with all the commenters. I’m not paying another subscription just to watch seal team. Love the shoe but.....it will go the way of the “O” network. How’d that work out?
-
G
My wife and I are both veterans and we have watched the show from day one.
Our cable bill is already over $200 a month for basic cable, and we refuse to pay more to watch streaming services.
-
O
As all others, sad, it’s one of a few tv shows I watched I won’t watch anything on that station period anymore!
-
C
I really liked this show! I live in a rural area and am not able to get the internet streaming for the show. I’m disabled and retired on a fixed income and also can not afford all the extras for tv. Sad to see one of my favorite shows gone from my line up. I actually think it pretty crappie that most of the great shows are being moved to the plus channels so half your audience loses out!
-
G
I really love Seal Team watched it from the first episode and have never missed an episode; and I am so disappointed that they are moving to a streaming site that is $10 per month. We can’t afford to pay for streaming sites for each show that moves to these streaming sites. These shows are going to lose fan base due to this move.
-
B
This is bullxxxxt cable bill at 200 bucks and 3/4 of it sucks so now when their is something you watch and you have to pay somebody else xtra fees ,this streaming crap for every network and show is getting like having a phone with a separate plan for everything that does the same thing screw them don’t watch !
-
R
I am going to miss the show when it goes to Paramount +. Not everyone can pay more for streaming. I have watched this show since Day 1 and loved every episode. Hope it draws the audience they are looking for.
-
R
I guess Seal Team is done, they will lose so many watchers who will not buy another streaming service (I won't buy any). Good luck with your next show guys.
-
O
I really love this show but I won't be able to afford to watch this show anymore when it goes to paramount plus so thanks for airing it on CBS when I was able to watch it. I have PTSD and alot of people doesn't even know what that is and I have to explain myself. But thank you for the chance of watching the show when I was able to. May you all be blessed. But there's alot of us that can't afford buying the streaming to watch you guys.
-
C
It's BS! We the fans have been watching since the beginning. We already have to pay for our local channels and now if we want to continue to watch, we have to pay for a streaming service. Not everyone can afford multiple platforms to watch TV. If a show starts out on the network, it should finish on the network. If you wanna show like this on Paramount+, create a spin off but the original should remain on CBS!
-
P
omdawg307I love the show but due to work, I can't stay up until 10 to watch which happens every time when it is on at 10. Now it is moving to a channel I have to pay for. Very disappointed with CBS.
-
P
Not happy at all!!! Very disappointed that you wil now have to pay to see seal team. Not right. Customers pay enough as it is. Love the show have seen it from beginning. Rethink this decision please!!

Sorry Netflix you will have to go so I can watch Seal Team
-
P
Nope, not paying more. Bye bye Seal Team.

One more thing. What is a Veteran? Whether active, discharged, retired or reserve, is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to the United States of America, for an amount up to and including his or her life. That is honor. And there are too many people in this country today, who no longer understand that fact. Seal Team if anything, reminds those on weekly basis the truth of voluntary sacrifice for all.
That is all.

Wow is all I can say….I have been watching Seal Team since the beginning and I have thoroughly enjoyed the episodes and the characters including the storylines and I am so disappointed to hear it’s leaving prime time ….that is so unfair…..you get attached to someone and their beliefs in their mission even if it is fictional and then bam it’s gone due to programming issues or policy….so sad ….It really is all about the money 💰

Awful!! Seal Team was a favorite of ours, but I refuse to pay more than I already do. It’s a disgrace!

They say without the fans, the shows get cancelled but still this is how you repay the fans for being loyal to a show, you move it to a streaming service.

If $10 a month is too expensive for you, I think you have bigger issues than a TV show moving

More people were streaming it than watching it Live... you think people are gonna be canceling their Paramount+ accounts over this? They’ll just be adding viewers

I hope you're right and the show does well. I'd love to- see it succeed at Paramount+ (even though I won't be able to watch it there).

I think it has an even better chance at longevity now than it’s moved to streaming than it did on broadcast. We were most certainly either looking at cancellation or a very shortened final 5th season on CBS. The show was very expensive to produce and the live ratings just didn’t get it the support it needed to continue on. With streaming being a different business model, where only views and subscribers matter (rather than demo ages of 18-49) it will have a better chance of succeeding past what would have been its broadcast expiration date. I feel more scripted dramas will follow this move in the future as Network TV is opting to produce more non-scripted fair which is cheaper (it sucks, but is what it is)

As a military family from grandfather, husband, wife and sons this is about the only show we all agree on. We will gladly give up a fast food meal to watch. Thank you for giving life to our world so others can have a glimpse. See you next season!!

giving up a fast food meal is still not enough to pay for "extra" streaming devices. Sorriy I do not agree.

Excited for the new season! I already have Paramount+ so I will be watching the new season. Can’t wait to see where they take the show. Hoping for more in depth character studies.
