Celebrity Bear Hunt will be available on Netflix from February 5 in the United Kingdom – Netflix usually releases new content at 8am. It’s not known yet whether the entire season will be dropped all at once or if episodes will be split into two parts. However, Netflix tends to drop its reality content in one chunk. The split release schedules are often reserved for fictional shows, such as Cobra Kai, Bridgerton, and, of course, Stranger Things.
