I want to watch Lower Decks but don’t want to get Paramount+ on top of all the other streaming services I don’t watch enough for their price.
There are alternatives
Make like an Orion.
You know not alllll Orions are obsessed with the pirate thing. Many Orions haven't been pirates for over five years!
I'm so disappointed. I thought you guys were cool!
Put on the patch, swabby.
Paramount+ is the only streaming service I actually pay for, specifically to support the creation of new Star Trek shows. It's a terrible service, but I think it's worth it. Especially to make sure that Lower Decks keeps running.
I still pay for it because they haven't cracked down on sharing. It's why o still have Hulu too.
If that goes, then so does my sub.
Same. Share my account with a couple friends. I mostly watch Trek, but it has a decent selection of movies and older TV too.
My dad and I both think apple has been best bang for the buck. I've let that one lapse, but I've enjoyed their originals.
Simple solution: Drop all the other services and get Paramount+. It's got Star Trek.
It's such a weird offering. Like I don't know off the top of my head what they do and don't own so it's so difficult for me to figure out in advance if they're going to have a particular show or not.
I really hope this isn't the start of a trend but I really suspect that it is where all of the various providers just start opening their own streaming services and start pulling things off the likes of Netflix and Prime.
