has added the final episode of DMV, bringing the CBS workplace comedy's run to a close more than a month after the show was canceled. Season 1, Episode 20, “Impact Will Be Felt,” is now available to stream on the platform today.

The episode arrives as the 20th and final chapter of a series built around the East Hollywood DMV office, where played Colette, a driving examiner with a big heart. The ensemble also included as Vic, as Barbara, as Noa, as Ceci, and Tim Meadows as Gregg, with guest appearances from Randall Park and Leslie Jones. Dana Klein created, wrote and executive-produced the series, and Natalia Anderson directed the finale from a screenplay by Klein and Matt Kuhn.

The late addition matters because the show had already ended its run before the finale appeared on Paramount+. Its arrival gives viewers the missing last chapter after the cancellation, and it comes with a small but real measure of attention attached: DMV holds a 65% approval rating on based on 17 reviews. For a network comedy that had been quiet since the cancellation, the streaming release gives the finale a chance to land with an audience that may not have seen it the first time around.

The finale's logline points to a workplace shake-up rather than a tidy goodbye. A long-awaited achievement sparks an office celebration that brings unresolved feelings and difficult realizations to the surface, while high-stakes decisions and unexpected shifts in power shape the future of the workplace. That makes the last episode less like a curtain call than a reset, even if the series itself will not continue beyond it.

DMV was produced by , with Aaron Kaplan, Matt Kuhn, Robyn Meisinger, Wendi Trilling and Trent O'Donnell among the executive producers. Irene Litinsky and Loic Bernard produced the show. What Paramount+ has done now is simple but decisive: it has finally made the complete series available, and for fans who were left with one episode missing, the answer is in the stream.
