How to watch Young Rock online: stream all-new NBC sit-com online from anywhere

A coming-of-age comedy about Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson? Some might say it's a premise that's too laughable for its own good. Follow our guide below as we explain how to watch Young Rock online and stream every episode of the new NBC show online wherever you are.

That's what we thought until we discovered NBC's new Tuesday night primetime show is co-created by Nahnatchka Khan of Fresh Off the Boat fame, and then realized the show might just be a solid addition to the network's weekly programming schedule.

The other co-producer for the show is...you guessed it, The Rock himself. Three actors portray him at ages 10, 15 and 20 - Adrian Groulx, Bradley Constant, and Uli Latukefu - on his journey from the playground to the pro wrestling ring and, eventually, US presidential hopeful.

That last bit is of course fictitious (for now at least), but it enables the show to cleverly frame its flashbacks to the life of the Young Rock through a series of interviews with would-be President Johnson by Randall Park (Louis Huang from Fresh Off The Boat, here playing himself). That, and all the incredible 80s fashion on display, and we're beginning to think NBC might be on to something of a winner.

There's only one way to find out, though. Tune in and watch Young Rock online via NBC and its companion streaming service Peacock, from anywhere in the world today.
