Countdown to 9-1-1: Nashville Episode 5 — Release Date, Exact Time, and Where to Watch
Sirens are about to blare again—9-1-1: Nashville Episode 5 is almost here. After Ryan leads Station 113 through a child’s life-or-death rescue, Blythe checks in on Dixie, and Don’s crew tackles chaos from a waterpark to a sorority house, here’s when it lands and where to watch.
Heads up if you have a soft spot for firefighter chaos and messy personal drama: 9-1-1: Nashville is about to drop Episode 5, and it lands this week. Here is the when, where, and why you might care, especially if you have been following Station 113 through the last few episodes.
Previously on 9-1-1: Nashville
Ryan is now steering Station 113, and the team recently handled a case where a kid's life was on the line. Blythe made time to visit Dixie, which sounds polite but also felt like a visit with an agenda. Don and the 113 bounced between emergencies at a waterpark and a sorority house because the show does love a big swing. Meanwhile, Blue is cramming for his firefighter exam and getting put through the wringer, while Blythe quietly digs into Blue's past. So yes, the job and the personal stuff are both heating up.
When and where to watch Episode 5
- Release date: Thursday, November 6, 2025
- US times: 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT
- How to watch: ABC on broadcast; streaming on Hulu (typically shortly after it airs)
ABC is the broadcast home here, the same network that turns out staples like Grey's Anatomy, The Good Doctor, Modern Family, and Dancing with the Stars. If you stream more than you channel-surf, Hulu is your path; it regularly hosts shows from major networks not long after they hit TV and also bankrolls originals like The Handmaid's Tale, Only Murders in the Building, and Castle Rock. New to Hulu? They usually offer a 30-day free trial for first-time subscribers.
What this show is trying to be
"Follow heroic first responders, as well as their family saga of power and glamour, in one of America's most diverse and dynamic cities: Nashville, Tennessee."
Translation: high-stakes calls, big personalities, and personal histories that do not stay buried for long. Episode 5 should keep that energy going, given where Blue and Blythe just left things.
