Elsbeth Season 3 will be back with another mystery, and Episode 7 is already making fans count down the days. If you’re wondering when it drops, where to watch it, and who’s showing up, you’re at the right place.
The short answer is that Episode 7 is set to release on November 20, and yes, it’s sticking to the CBS and Paramount+ schedule. Below is everything you need in one place so you don’t miss a second of Episode 7 of Season 3.
Elsbeth Season 3 Episode 7 release date news and exact timing
Fans of Elsbeth Season 3 have been eager to watch yet another episode of Season 3. The 7th episode is titled “And Then There Were Nuns,” and it officially releases on Thursday, November 20, 2025. The time is a little different from the usual schedule, so fans should keep a close eye on the drop.

The episode airs on TV screens at 9:00 PM, which is slightly earlier than the usual time slot. CBS is placing this episode at this special time, which suggests that they know this one is going to grab attention in a big way.
The plot revolves around a pop star who purchases a decrepit convent. It sounds harmless at first, almost too funny to be true, even, but things turn dark when a murder shakes the place. Season 3 really leans into this mix of weird/absurd humor and danger, and this episode is no different.
It also continues the storyline with Teddy, who is still digging into Alec Bloom’s past for his feature piece. There’s also a brief break coming after this episode because the show returns again after Thanksgiving. So Episode 7 works almost like a mini cliffhanger before the next batch begins.
Elsbeth Season 3 Episode 7 streaming details
If you're watching Elsbeth Season 3, the easiest way to catch Episode 7 is through CBS. The network airs it live, and if you’re someone who no longer watches cable, you’re not left out. Paramount+ streams it both live and later on demand, depending on your subscription plan. Premium members can watch it as it airs, while Essential members can catch up on it the next day without missing anything.
The episode’s official synopsis also adds extra hype. It reads:
“A pop star’s purchase of a failing convent turns divine real estate into a murder scene as Elsbeth takes on the Mother of all nuns. Meanwhile, Teddy digs into Alec Bloom’s past for a feature he is working on.”
It gives just enough detail to keep fans feeling hooked to the show, but the synopsis still leaves more than enough room for surprises. The show’s classic style of dropping clues slowly is what keeps us hooked every week.
And honestly, something about this season of Elsbeth Season 3 feels bigger, louder, and way more unpredictable. Episode 7 is set up to deliver the same vibe.
