Watch Every Season: You can stream every episode from every season of Young Sheldon, including the most recent season (Season 6) on-demand with Max (Formerly HBO Max).
Watch The Latest Season: You can stream episodes from the latest season (Season 6 ) of Young Sheldon on-demand on Paramount+, DIRECTV STREAM, Hulu Live TV, FuboTV, and YouTube TV.
Where you can stream Young Sheldon usually depends on which season you want to watch and whether or not the show is currently airing new episodes. When Young Sheldon is airing new episodes, episodes from that season air on CBS which you can watch live and on-demand through Paramount+ and other services I cover below.
However, Max (formerly HBO Max) has the on-demand streaming rights to Young Sheldon. Once episodes air on CBS, they are only available on-demand through streaming services carrying CBS for a few months before moving to Max. Season 6 ended on May 18, 2023. Those episodes arrived on Max in early September, so it takes about 3-4 months for episodes to arrive from CBS.
Currently, all episodes of Young Sheldon from seasons 1 through season 6 are available on Max. Due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA labor dispute with Hollywood Studios, we likely won’t see new episodes of Young Sheldon season 7 until 2024. When those episodes air, you can stream them on a streaming service that carries CBS like Paramount+. Otherwise, you will need to wait a few months after the mid-season break before new episodes transition to Max.
Watch Past Seasons of Young Sheldon
Unlike many CBS shows, Young Sheldon is part of a WarnerMedia Distribution which streams the majority of its content on Max (formerly HBO Max). All past seasons are streaming exclusively in its Digital Library, not on Paramount+. A subscription to HBO-Max costs $15.99 per month for their ad-free plan and $9.99 per month for their ad-supported service (meaning a few commercials with every episode). You can sign up here. Max is supported on Android, iOS, Apple TV, Chromecast, Playstation, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and more. You can check out our review of Max for more details on this streaming service.
Where Will Season 7 Stream
When new episodes of Young Sheldon air, they air every Thursday at 8 p.m. ET/7 C on CBS. Paramount+ (Formerly CBS All Access) is the best way to stream Young Sheldon as the streaming service provides a live feed of your local CBS station and will let you watch new episodes when they air on CBS. Paramount+ will also have the current season of the show available on-demand the day after it airs live, so you can watch Young Sheldon on-demand if you miss an episode.
Paramount+ offers a 7-day free trial so that you can try the service with no risk. However, there are two plan options to choose from:
Paramount+ Premium: Provides live streaming access to your local CBS station so you can watch Young Sheldon episodes when they air Thursday at 10 p.m. This plan also provides on-demand ad-free access to Paramount+ content, although it does not currently have past seasons of Young Sheldon on demand. After the 7-day free trial, the service price starts at $11.99.
Paramount+ Essential: This plan provides ad-supported on-demand the current season of Young Sheldon for $5.99 per month after a 7-day free trial. This plan doesn’t include live CBS, so you will have to wait a day after new episodes of season 6 air to watch.
Paramount+ is available on Roku Players, Apple TV, Xbox, Chromecast, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Fire TV Stick. See our review of Paramount+ for more information on this streaming service.
