Any reason for me to not use Paramount.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Seriously, why is the app just so bad?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

So I see that YouTube is offering a free trial (USA) of Showtime + Paramount Plus... for 7 days. Does that mean I get to use YouTube's streaming/app?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Is the next season on Paramount? In the UK the first three seasons are all on Disney plus.

Strange New World is on Paramount, but not Lower Decks.

I have tried a few times but just cannot enjoy this show

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

That's okay!

First half of season 1 I couldn't stand the characters, but I feel they settle down after that then it gets really good then! But to each their own!

I’ve never watched Lower Decks and probably won’t. But, the SNW crossover was one of the most entertaining shows I’ve ever seen. At least it was for me.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Oh you should, it's so good. Probably ties with SNW

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

But have you watched the strange new worlds crossover episode?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

@Eeyore_Syndrome @incendiaryperihelion
I saw that with no knowledge of Lower Decks. It was an instant favorite. My wife cares little for Star Trek but she sat down and laughed along with me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I just watched that one, but haven't watched the LD show. I enjoyed the episode knowing what it was (especially when they cartooned the SNW crew) but I'm not sure if I'd enjoy the show, they were quite annoying and didn't respect the chain of command enough 😂

They seem to have pulled Season 3 here in Germany even though it was marketed as an "Amazon Original". Seasons 1 and 2 are still on Prime. Pretty disappointed because I just started a rewatch.

@ValueSubtracted

This licensing bullshit is really making me furious, from all streaming services nowadays

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Arr. It be a problem matey.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Here in Italy season 3 is only for "premium" on prime.

The state of streaming services is embarrassing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It’s all moved to Paramount+ and SkyShowtime.

... I'm probably not the first to point out that Star Trek they do a lot of walking, they don't go transporting everywhere. Why wouldn't the Golden Gate be a pedestrian crossing... just for the view. I don't get why you would write it that way, it isn't really humor, it's just lazy.

EDIT: ok, the Ketracel-white hot sauce was the quality of joke I was expecting ;) The NOLA culture stuff is great.
