Right now you can watch Catfish: The TV Show in Australia on Paramount Plus and Stan, and in the US on Hulu and fuboTV — and it is more addictive than the premise lets on. 9 seasons of it means there is plenty to get through without ever feeling padded. Its 7/10 TMDB score, built from 145 ratings, reflects a title that consistently delivers. Watch it for the format — it delivers exactly what it promises. Put it on tonight on Paramount Plus and see for yourself.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Catfish: The TV Show earns its spot. The production behind Catfish: The TV Show knows exactly which moments to let breathe. Nev and his co-hosts -- from Max to Kamie to celebrity guests -- help people in dubious online relationships track down their baes IRL so they can sort out what's fact and what's fiction. Watching Nēv Schulman and Kamie Crawford navigate it is most of the appeal. Across 9 seasons (2012–2024), it never lost the thread that made it worth starting. The format has been replicated endlessly since Catfish: The TV Show first appeared, which is its own form of tribute. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Catfish: The TV Show is impossible to watch casually — expect strong opinions. The Young and the Restless is the obvious comparison, but Catfish: The TV Show earns its own place alongside it. 9 seasons gives the story real room to develop. The production understands its own premise and executes on it without apology. If you have enjoyed similar formats before, this is one of the stronger examples of what the genre can do.

Catfish: The TV Show was cancelled in 2024, created by Max Joseph, Nēv Schulman and Ariel Schulman — and 9 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
