David Boreanaz's 7-Season Series Is Coming To Netflix In Less Than One Month

By Abdullah Al-Ghamdi

A popular show, with David Boreanaz in the lead, is soon coming to Netflix.

Continuing an impressive TV run that began with Buffy the Vampire Slayer in 1997, Boreanaz will headline NBC's upcoming reboot of The Rockford Files in January 2027. He'll play Jim Rockford, putting his spin on the character made famous by James Garner, but the project he led just before will soon reach a wider audience.

What's On Netflix reveals that multiple seasons of SEAL Team will be available to Netflix subscribers in the U.S. starting on August 18. An exact number of seasons is unknown yet, but those details will be confirmed when the streamer announces its list of arrivals for August. SEAL Team's arrival comes as part of a larger licensing deal between Netflix and Paramount Global, which also includes titles such as Mayor of Kingstown and Lawman: Bass Reeves.

SEAL Team was one of Paramount's most reliable action dramas. It began on CBS in September 2017 before moving to the Paramount+ streaming service in November 2021, where it would air for another two seasons. The story focused on the lives of Bravo Team, one of the Navy SEAL units, with Boreanaz playing the role of Jason Hayes for the show's entire run.

Boreanaz was joined by Max Thieriot, known for his runs on Bates Motel and Fire Country, as Clay Spenser. The cast also included Jessica Paré, Neil Brown Jr., A. J. Buckley, Toni Trucks, Judd Lormand, Raffi Barsoumian, Beau Knapp, and Dylan Walsh. SEAL Team was created by Benjamin Cavell, with Spencer Hudnut later serving as showrunner.

Jason Hayes arguably began with some points of comparison with Boreanaz's most famous roles, whether the confident Seeley Booth on Bones or the brooding vamp he portrayed on Buffy and Angel. But as the military drama progresses, especially in the final season of SEAL Team, Hayes demonstrates a kind of vulnerability that does not typically defineBoreanaz's performances.

There is a long runway for audiences to enjoy the journey, in any case. The first three seasons consist of 22 episodes, unheard of in the streaming era and even becoming rare for network dramas. Later seasons get progressively shorter, but SEAL Team has all the components to fit right at home with Netflix's The Night Agent and Man on Fire.
 
When it first aired, I saw a couple of episodes. It actually looks pretty good. At the time I had lot going on, and a new television series wasn't really high on my priorities list. I may revisit. Thanks for the info!

I wonder if all the seasons will be available, or only up to a certain point.

Trust me, I've got a long, long list of things to watch! But thank you anyway!
By the way, do you mean Bodyguard, with Richard Madden? It was brilliant, loved that show.

@Btvs fan - Bodyguard is a show I always recommend to people to watch! I did hear rumours of a second season, but I'm happy if they left it as is.

Yep that was the one
I enjoyed the early seasons, then life got in the way. DB found a character formula that works for him (from Bones on, which i watched in its 12 season entirety). From the reviews of Seal Team he got better with time. He used btvs and angel to learn his craft.
 
Might give it another try.
Stopped watch it after season 2 when it was on air.

Not sure why. Think I just forgot about it, probably busy.
Think it was a good enough show.

OK, I took the leap and started watching it. It's good! The military ops makes you almost feel like you're watching a documentary and it's real-life.

The characters are being established and there's some obvious world-building as it's the first season. Think I'm going to stick with it! It's drawn me in.
 
I enjoyed it but I'm a sucker for a military procedural show...not sure if that's a thing but police procedural is so why not?
