It makes slightly more sense than trying to expand Star Trek’s appeal by creating a kids show and then putting it on a subscription service that was basically only used by existing Trek fans.
This is exactly what’s wrong with the Paramount+ model. The best it can do is produce Star Trek for people who already like Star Trek - there’s not enough other content on P+ otherwise for anyone to pay for a subscription. Without Star Trek available on mainstream TV or major streamers like Netflix or Prime, so that people can stumble across it or dip their toes in without needing to sign up to a whole other streaming service, it’s hard to see how the franchise wins over new generations of fans.
So best case, if P+ is the future of Star Trek, then the future of Star Trek has an expiry date.
@theinspectorst @ValueSubtracted @taladar @Vordus paramount+ has two publics: star trek fans and RuPaul fans
That’s it
Hey people got it to watch the halo show ! Also Yellowstone is apparently very popular, and CBS stuff like NCIS (apparently the most watched show of all time?)
However I agree that they really should had just made a deal with Netflix which would have been cheaper for them than making their own streaming service
@AuroraBorealis Sorry to hear you watched the Halo show. At least the last episode was alright.
