Okay, let's talk Young Rock. Season 1, to be exact. Remember that show? The one where Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson basically narrates his own ridiculously amazing childhood?
Finding it shouldn't be an Olympic sport, but sometimes, it feels that way. So, where exactly *can* you watch the first season?
The Usual Suspects
First off, let's hit the obvious spots. These are your go-to streaming services, the places you *expect* to find all the good stuff.
Hulu? Maybe.
Hulu is often a safe bet. They have a bunch of NBC shows. But check their current listings! Things change faster than The Rock can change a diaper (probably).
Peacock, Your NBC Hub
Peacock is NBC's own streaming service. That makes it the *most* likely place to find Young Rock. It's probably the best place to binge if you are so inclined.
You might need a subscription, though. Free options are usually pretty limited. Weigh up whether that's worth it for revisiting young Dwayne Johnson's mullet.
Amazon Prime Video? Worth a Look.
Amazon Prime Video *might* have it. But it might be a purchase situation, not a streaming-with-your-subscription situation. Buyer beware!
Sometimes shows are available to buy by the episode or season. Check before you get too excited.
The Less Obvious (But Still Possible)
Alright, so the big streamers let you down? Don't panic. There are still some avenues to explore. Prepare for some digital digging!
Cable On Demand
Remember cable? Some cable providers offer on-demand services. Check your cable box or your provider's website. You never know.
It’s a long shot, but worth a quick glance if you already have cable.
YouTube or Google Play
YouTube and Google Play often have TV shows for purchase. Again, you're *buying*, not streaming. But if you really, *really* want to see that specific episode...
It's always an option, albeit a potentially pricey one.
My Unpopular Opinion (Prepare Yourself)
Okay, here it comes. My controversial take on watching Young Rock Season 1.
Honestly? Maybe... skip it? Controversial, I know! Hear me out.
Season 1 was fun and introduced the concept. But the show really found its footing later on. Starting with Season 2 might be a perfectly acceptable entry point!
Don't hate me! Season 2 dives deeper into his college football years and wrestling dreams. It's arguably even more entertaining.
I will say this, however, that young Dewey is a good show!
Of course, if you're a completionist, ignore everything I just said. Go hunt down Season 1. Enjoy every minute of young Rock's awkward teenage years.
But if you're just looking for a fun, feel-good show? Jump right in with the later seasons. You won't be totally lost, I promise.
Ultimately, the choice is yours. Happy watching (or not watching)! But please, don't judge me too harshly for my bold suggestion.
