HBO Max acquires streaming rights to The Big Bang Theory spin-off Young Sheldon

May 30, 2020 by EJ Moreno

The hit comedy series Young Sheldon is coming to HBO Max. Early on Friday, the streaming service announced that Young Sheldon would join its source series, The Big Bang Theory, on the platform.

“We now feel like our Big Bang offering is complete,” said Kevin Reilly, chief content officer, HBO Max, president TNT, TBS, and TruTV. “We are so proud to be the home of this beloved franchise and the place where new and existing fans can learn about young Sheldon Cooper’s roots.”

“In order for Sheldon Cooper to visit his younger self, he would need to manipulate spacetime. All you actually need is HBO Max,” said Young Sheldon creators/executive producers Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro.

“We are so pleased that Young Sheldon will once again be reunited with his future self on HBO Max, and we are excited for fans, new and old, to be able to binge both The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon for the first time.”

Young Sheldon is currently the number-one comedy on network television with total viewers, Teens, and all key 25-54 demos. This inquiry does help complete the viewing package for this series and marks another CBS show that finds its home on Max rather than their own service, CBS All Access. You can currently stream all 279 episodes of Big Bang that are available on the streamer right now.
