The cast of Sistas

After a brief hiatus earlier this year, this hit dramedy returned with the second half of its seventh season. However, there hasn’t been a new episode for a while, so where is Sistas Season 7 Episode 23?

From creator Tyler Perry, Sistas has been combining comedy, romance, and intense drama for years now. It’s arguably one of the very best TV shows when it comes to depicting the lives of young, black, American women, and it’s the gift that keeps on giving.

With the rise of streaming services, finding shows that have more than 12 episodes per season is such a rarity these days, but Sistas keeps us fed for months at a time.

Fans are hungry for more now, though, so let’s look at how many episodes are on the slate, and find out what’s going on with that elusive 23rd episode.

The season is over

There is no Sistas Season 7 Episode 23, because the season has ended. But, there is more coming with Season 8, and we think it’s coming soon.

The comedy show has 22 episodes per season, with the Season 7 finale dropping on August 7, 2024.

While there has been no official announcement on Season 8, it is very likely the show will return as early as November 2024. There are even murmurs online that the first episode of the new season will be titled ‘Dead Man Walking’, which has us very excited!

At the moment it looks like there will be 20 episodes in Sistas Season 8, but that could well change once more details emerge.

How to watch Sistas

You can watch Sistas on the BET cable channel each week.

If you miss an episode or just want to go back, there are some options for you to catch up. You’ll have to sign up for services like Philo, FuboTV, or DirecTV Stream.

Why did Sistas go off-air?

The comedy-drama took a mid-season break from airing, with Season 7 split into two parts like many shows do these days.

We are seeing this happen more and more lately, with some shows pausing so that production can catch up after the Hollywood strikes affected the writing and shooting of various projects. Sometimes, shows take a hiatus just to build anticipation, too.

Midseason breaks are fairly common in US network television anyway, so there’s no big concern with Sistas stopping on March 13, before returning at the end of May.
