Streaming libraries are constantly shifting, and fans of high-stakes psychological thrillers have a limited window to catch up on one of NBC’s most intriguing mysteries. Blindspot, the series known for its intricate puzzles and conspiracy-driven plot, is officially preparing to exit Netflix.
When is Blindspot Leaving Netflix?
Netflix will bid farewell to all five seasons of Blindspot on Sunday, June 7, 2026. According to What’s on Netflix, the entire series will be removed from the content library on this date, meaning viewers have until the end of the first week of June to finish their binge-watch.
A Look Back at the NBC Psychological Drama
Created by Martin Gero for NBC, Blindspot centers on a gripping premise: an unnamed woman is discovered naked inside a duffel bag in the middle of New York’s Times Square. With no memory of her identity and her body covered in complex tattoos, she becomes the center of a massive FBI investigation.
The series is led by Jaimie Alexander, who portrays Jane Doe. Alexander is also widely recognized for her role as Sif in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The show’s narrative unfolds as the FBI discovers that Jane’s tattoos are actually elaborate clues to impending crimes and deep-seated conspiracies, which simultaneously help unravel the mystery of Jane’s own past.
The ensemble cast supporting Alexander includes:
- Sullivan Stapleton as Kurt Weller
- Ashley Johnson as Patterson
- Rob Brown as Edgar
- Audrey Esparza as Tasha
- Ukweli Roach as Robert
- Luke Mitchell as Roman

On Metacritic, the drama holds a weighted average score of 65 based on 34 critic reviews, complemented by a user score of 6.9 from 293 ratings. While the series earned three Primetime Emmy nominations for its work, it did not secure a win.

By the time the series ended, average viewership had dipped to 3 million, according to The Wrap.
