‘SEAL Team’: 8 Questions We Have for a Season 6
SEAL Team left us needing more after its Season 5 finale — but that could very well be it for the military drama.
The CBS-turned-Paramount+ series has yet to be renewed for a sixth season, though star and executive producer David Boreanaz noted to TV Insider, “We’ve done great for Paramount+. You look at the numbers and the streaming, and then we’ve been trending as one of their number one shows for the past few weeks. So we’re doing good for ’em.”
This comes as Boreanaz’s Jason Hayes and the rest of Bravo was last seen ambushed and under heavy fire (including RPGs!), just after Clay Spenser (Max Thieriot) announced his plans to leave the team and be home for his wife and new baby. Will everyone survive? That’s only one of the questions we have for a possible sixth season. Scroll down for more.
SEAL Team, Seasons 1-5, Streaming Now, Paramount+
Who will survive?
Bravo had a quick turnaround from the omega op to a mission that took them to Mali, West Africa, to capture a member of SGS rising in the ranks. If he had actionable intel, they would then follow up on it. But they were attacked once on the ground, and last we saw them, it wasn’t looking good (photo above). Will Jason, Ray Perry (Neil Brown Jr.), Clay, Sonny Quinn (A.J. Buckley), and Brock Reynolds (Justin Melnick) all survive?
Will anyone be seriously injured?
Bravo was bruised and bloody — Jason was shot in the arm, with Ray patching it up best he could — before the RPGs. It’s hard to imagine, if all of them survive, someone not suffering an injury that means at least some physical therapy.
Will Clay actually leave Bravo?
On their way to Mali, Clay told Jason that it was going to be his last run with the team; he planned to put up for Green Team so he could be there for his family, at least for the near future. (He and Alona Tal’s Stella did, after all, just bring their son home.) Jason told him it was the smartest decision he ever made, and he and Bravo would be there whenever he wanted to return. But how might the fallout of the ambush and what comes next in West Africa affect Clay’s decision?
How much longer will Jason be able to operate?
As was explored in more detail than before this season, Jason has a TBI, one that has started to affect his memory (as seen in his exercise with the fridge, then on a mission that nearly got his entire team killed). He has treatment options, but first he has to make it home in one piece — and that appears to be easier said than done, considering Bravo’s situation. He’d told Clay he’d be there when he wanted to return, but will he? Jason tried leaving operating in the past (and that didn’t last), but might he not have a choice sooner rather than later?
Will Davis' paper truly change anything?
Lisa Davis (Toni Trucks) may have made some enemies with her paper focusing on their warfighters’ safety, but she also made at least one friend in Captain Reyes, who directly reports to the Deputy Undersecretary of the Navy for Policy and focuses on policy and strategy across naval operations. He shares her concerns, he told her, and offered her a seat at the table to be part of the solution. But, he also warned, change takes time. Is it feasible to expect anything will be significantly different in a sixth season?
Will Sonny and Davis get back together?
Oh, the on-again, off-again relationship of Sonny and Davis. After hitting a pretty low low — he blamed her for Hannah (Rachel Boston) leaving him — he apologized in the finale and made it clear that his feelings for her are still very much there. “I might not have all the things I love in my life, but two out of three ain’t bad, right?” Sonny pointed out before giving her a significant look while commenting that some things are irreplaceable. And considering she wanted to tell Sonny before Grant (Matthew Hancock) of her meeting with Reyes, something tells us those two could be working their way back to each other soon.
Can Jason and Mandy make a relationship work?
Jason and Mandy Ellis (Jessica Paré) seem to be ready to turn their casual meet-ups at a hotel into an actual relationship. He put himself out there and was honest about what he’s been dealing with, and last we saw her, she was with his daughter Emma (Kerri Medders) at Stella’s baby shower while Bravo was under attack. But as Boreanaz pointed out, “It’s such a struggle to really define happiness for this guy in a way.”
Will Ray and Naima open the veterans center?
“Just looking to do more for our brothers and sisters who go to war, get chewed up and come back home broken,” Ray explained to Jason. “Just trying to make sure there’s something back home at the end of this for all of us.” It was a project that took a backseat to the omega op, but upon returning home, Ray found out that the vet they’d been trying to help overdosed. Will they have a chance to finally make that happen in a sixth season?

As far as I’ve seen, P+ has a cornered marker with this being the only military show ANYWHERE. It’s the reason why I subscribed to the platform. They cancel SEAL Team, I’ll cancel them. Easy decision. Make the right choice Paramount+
-
G
I agree 100%. P+ will lose a lot of their viewing audience. SEAL TEAM ROCKS-!
-
O
In total agreement with Kaye and Tim. Seal Team gets canceled and I too will cancel my subscription to Paramount +
-
-
-
G
Renew seal team or I have no reason to continue to pay for P+. The rest of their content isn’t worth it. Rehashed movies, etc.
-
G
I sooooooo agree. 1883 is good but SEAL TEAM is awesome. Drop it? I'm gone too...
-
-
P
Seal Team is the best show on TV!!
Joined P+ specifically to watch season 5.
Not to have a season 6 & beyond would be very disappointing. If Seal Team is canceled I will assuredly drop my P+ subscription.
-
B
I only came to P+ for SEAL TEAM. I’ll cancel my subscription immediately if the cancel this Awesome show.
-
C
If the show is doing as well as I’ve been hearing on P+(supposedly at the top for the last few weeks), they’d be stupid to cancel it. Best show on TV in my opinion and they can’t leave us hanging with that cliffhanger
-
P
Renew for season 6. Can’t end like this.
-
O
But it can.....
Marcus Luttrell's (seal from lone survivor) words. "Usually when you see seals die in combat its a bunch of us, I mean we get HIT. With us it was 19 extortion it was 31, its kinda just the way we are..."
-
-
B
There has to be more! It can't end like this . Bring seal team back!!!
-
O
Seal Team is the best ever! We pay to watch it now and you say that the season is over in January and maybe the series! I thought you went to Paramount so you could do intense, more realistic story lines. Hook us in, kill everyone off and leave us hanging with maybe season 6, maybe not. I will cancel Paramount if you cancel Seal Team. Also, you can’t end the season in January. Seriously? This is one of the best shows ever!
-
O
If Paramount + cancels the show no reason for me to keep the channel. I’ll cancel as soon as P+ cancels Seal Team.
-
R
I only signed up for P+ because of Seal Team. If they get canceled so does my subscription!
-
R
SealTeam was the main reason I upgraded to P+. If they cancel SealTeam I will just likely cancel P+.
-
G
Please renew Seal Team! I got Paramount + just so I could watch it, haven't missed one show. And when they went from Cbs to Paramount + thats when I got a roku so I could watch it. I love this show it is the only show military wise on tv anymore. I really have no other reason to keep paying for Paramount + if you cancel Seal Team. Yes I have been watching 1 other show on there, but it's not the reason I got it. And that other show isnt worth keeping it if your going to not bring Seal Team back for season 6. In fact I hope it goes on for alot more seasons.
-
R
Don't cancel the show i love this show I will be off to basic soon hope they figure it out by the time I graduate an finish jump school. Are I will have to agree with other people's comments and find another channel to support two is one one is none. Never give up hope
-
B
All I can say is, this serie is the best I ever watched. It should go on until season 10 at least. I fell in love with it
-
G
I love Seal Team. Please renew for season 6 and beyond! This show is the only reason I signed up for Paramount Plus! If it is cancelled I will cancel you!
-
P
Cancel Seal Team and I'm canceling Paramount plus. period

G
The only reason I subscribe to Paramount + was because of Seal Team. If it is not renewed. I will cancel Paramount + in a flash. As I have stated before what a mistake it was moved from regular Tv.
-
G
Yep.. drop Seal Team and we drop Paramount

R
The only reason I subscribe to Paramount + is to watch Seal Team. Let is go on!
-
O
We need more of seal team. Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
P
Seal Team is the only reason to watch fictional TV. Everything else is redundantly boring.
-
C
I also signed up for P+ to watch Seal Team and while I understand you can write up just many ops I enjoy the show & hope they come back.
-
R
I miss Seal team since it moved to P+, I can't see paying for a show that was on regular TV. It was the best show on miss you guys...
-
C
AGREED! Best show around. No Seal Team season 6 means dropping P+
-
C
I subscribed to P+ strictly for SEAL Team. If it's cancelled, seeing as I already have Top Gun on BluRay, I cancel.
-
O
Best show on tv has to be a season 6 Bravo Team can’t go out like that cop on paramount
-
R
SealTeam is the only reason I subscribe to Paramount +. If they go away, I just might as well.
Please think about renewing. I can't stand having to wait to find out. It's a great show with a strong following, and there is NOTHING like it ANYWHERE. So the fan base is loyal.
-
O
I am so sad that I can’t see one of my favorite show anymore! I don’t have Paramount and I think it’s not fair, that they moved it to Paramount. Where some people can’t watch.
-
R
I would have jumped over top of clay he just had a kid if it would bring him home to his kid. It Would be worth it hope they keep the show going I wait every Sunday just to see what happens only military show we got
-
O
Clay spencer has to make it. He is a true seal. Show would not be the same.
-
C
I agree with a lot of the other comments. I Love this show..and there isn't anything else that I watch on P+...what a waste of my money especially when I found out the new season is not supposed to start until this fall after I've already paid to subscribe. What a let down to hear that. I feel I was lied to. I'm just plain disappointed.. Anyone find anything else worth watching on this P+?
-
O
Paramount needs more series as good as "The Offer" and "The Seals" and "1883" There is not much else to watch here.
-
G
I got P+ just to be able to watch Seal Team.... best show ever !
Drop Seal Team ....I'm gone too !
-
C
I only purchased Paramount+ for SealTeam, so if it’s canceled then I shall cancel Paramount+. Talked with all my friends and they’ve said the same. We already feel short changed for season 5 and uncertainty of there being any future seasons.
-
O
Only re-joined to see last episode of the Seal Team again. We were so disappointed it may be cancelled. The best show they have to offer.
-
G
Clay has to come back ! He is the future for Bravo and being Bravo 1.
We also need to see what’s going on with Stella and Brian .
-
O
Hope season six brings the full complement of 22 episodes or even more
-
O
Seal Team is currently one of the only shows that is like real army the show is great just hope the team stay together hope their could be more shows or even movies like that.

C
so 6) I would really like sonny and lisa to get back toggather with the necesary worldbuilding ( lisa stop dating the man who's name i Forgot (sorry) for whatever reason and if the rest of the series evolves well maby give them a child )
8 ) I dont really see it happaning but i would be really nice
-
C
1) I dont think anyone else showld die unless you really lack funs ( if you , rip brock , if you dont it would be nice to evolve his character , just a sugestion )
2) Considering the situation they are in i think someone showl be "seriously injured" but not necesarely mortally. ( again considering how much time you spent worldbuilding arround brock my bet is on him )
3) I really wold like Clay to stay in bravo but stop operating untill his child's health improves ( lets say untill he gets to the age of 1 )
4) Jason is a bit more complicated. The caracter is extrimely important for the series and a lot of time has been spent worldbuilding arround him so getting him retired ( and out of the series ) is not going to be receaved well by everibody. My opinion on how he showld roughtly evolve is letting him operate for 4 or 8 years max . I thought of such a high number because lets say the Pedro plant improved his mental health considerably togather with my next point.
7) Jason showld really get in a relationship . This would improve his mental health and prolongue his career in Bravo. If at some point you wont be able to plausably keep him in bravo , you could turn him into a instructor and so kepp him in the series.
5) I dont think Davis's paper will necesarely make a crater , but make some notisable changes twords the better.
6) ill keep writing in an other message since the article reaches its size limit

Hay i love watching "seal team" I have been a fan from the start and CBS and paramount + wake up we want the show back for alot more seasons we will tell you when too take it off '' never" .... we love it and want more of it too if you take it off you will loose more than a fan base you might as well take off PARAMOUNT + TOO because i will not watch it any more, i don't care what you put on it, if it's not broke leave it alone........................

R
Seal team is the reason I subscribed to paramount plus. Please renew.
-
R
Like so many others, we signed on to P+ for the SOLE REASON of watching SEAL TEAM only to end up seeing a few episodes.
If P+ puts an end to SEAL TEAM, they're going to lose alot of customers. We'll be gone & we won't be back no matter what P+ promises.
I think I only heard the "F" word 4 times. I've heard toddlers say that word & I've heard grade & high school kids say so much worse than that so basically I paid for that?
Not sure why they didn't just stay on CBS or go to another channel. We're very disappointed.

O
Love the show hate since on paramount the foul language has changed
-
R
Seal team is the best program on all the major networks Please bring it back
-
B
I love sealteam, but since they have moved to Paramount, I have to hear the F-word now on the show. Do you really have to put that in? I was enjoying not having to hear that before on Sealteam.
-
P
I agree about P+.
Sadly, I think this ending is how they wanted to leave it.... not a "happily-ever-Hollywood" ending, but a more realistic, sad ending. The show's done a great job showing the severe hardships & danger our warriors face.
-
O
Seal is a great show but it’s possible it’s ran it’s course. Maybe they should do a 90 minute show to close it. Let us see that there is life after such a long time of struggling in the Afghanistan conflict.
