Where to Watch The Soul Man in Canada

one of the decade's best, The Soul Man is currently streaming in the US on Paramount Plus Premium and Paramount Plus Essential with a 6/10 audience score that speaks for itself. 54 episodes — the right length to tell the story it's telling.

The Soul Man does what great comedies rarely manage — it's actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. R&B superstar-turned-minister Reverend Boyce "The Voice" Ballentine was living the high life in Las Vegas at the top of the music charts when he gets the calling to go from soul singer to soul saver. Relocating to St. Louis with his wife, Lolli and his daughter, Lyric to take over the preaching duties in his father's church, his family is not exactly eager to give up the fabulous superstar life for a humble one. Cedric the Entertainer and Niecy Nash lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 5 seasons (2012–2016), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

The kind of show you put on in the background and find yourself actually paying attention to.
