    A little off topic, but I’d like to nominate the Paramount+ marketing team for some sort of award.

    Their adverts are everywhere, I don’t have Paramount+, yet every ad I see somehow makes me want it less.

        I mean, there is that. But it’s also their choice of things they advertise. Like, there’ll be a billboard with five or six diverse shows, and they’re all the sort of absolute drek I’d scroll past in the subscriptions I already pay for.

        I see them and just think “I’m glad I don’t subscribe to Paramount+”

      Strange New Worlds is pretty good. I’ll probably cancel when I’m done watching it though.

      It’s definitely a terrible streaming service all around. If I want a trekkie they be dropped.

      I subscribed during a promotion for $2 and the only thing on the entire service I watched was Yellowjackets (and that’s a Showtime series, so don’t know why it was on there).

      I don’t understand why so many companies want their own streaming service when they don’t have the content to carry one.
