The series premiered on 5 March 2007 on CBBC in the UK, also airing on BBC Two. Since 2020, the series is streamed globally on Netflix. In March 2024, it was announced that the seventh series is in development and will premiere in 2025.[1] With 170 episodes over 6 series, Shaun the Sheep is one of the longest-running animated series in British television.
