Went to watch the next generation before bed and it won’t pull up any of the episodes or continue where I left off. Instead it shows the extras tab and related shows and about.

    I hope that they put them all back on pretty much any other platform so I can unsubscribe from that garbage service. My BF still watches Netflix sometimes so I haven’t gotten rid of it, sigh. Put it back there please. That was the only thing I used Netflix for.

      Screw netflix and the others. For like 5 moneyz a month you could go sonarr. Enter “star trek tng”, wait. Watch on your own machine in the quality you prefer. You only need to be a bit tech-savvy and it’s only a one-time-work-investment. You will never go back.

        But think of Paramount’s profit loss! Oh no we might not get more star trek prodigy oh no!

          First they’ll cancel Prodigy and then next thing you know they might cancel TNG or DS9. It’s a slippery slope!

    Update: it’s back to normal but it still scared me 🤣 any idea why it wouldn’t let me watch for a certain amount of time?

      Paramount+ as a web app sucking all the things that are derogatorily sackable is likely the cause. It is an objectively horrible platform.

        Can’t even binge a show without episodes randomly playing in another language, or the ad free version starts playing ads

          I recently cancelled my paramount account due to the ads. found a great alternative that’s 100% cheaper. put on the episode, “the measure of a man” and drifted off to sleep.

            I haven’t seen ads run during a show, but every now and then they’ll shove whatever they’re movie or show they’re trying to push in a preview before a new episode runs. I just hit back and start it again and it goes away.

              that’s what I experienced as well. although it’s minor, I think it’s a PITA.

        It sucks and I canceled it and subscribed to it through YouTube which means paramount gets 30% less money.

      I’d wager it was just some sort of bug or glitch, I’ve seen similar things happen on other streaming services

      why do you let a corporation control whether or not you can watch something? don’t use paramount+ or any other DRM-locked service. Sooner or later they will take it away, and there’s no guarantee you’ll have access to it if you don’t have your own copy.
