Maybe if they did not pull it from the service I am paying for in order to try and make me pay for yet another service this would not be a problem. But, no, corporate greed dictates that I must pay for 100 different streaming platforms to watch the one show on each one.
I am sick of this…
Same. I won’t watch the season until I complete my streaming service rotation…
I rotate them like quarterly.
Same here, I was there day one watching legally when it was on Amazon, then they pulled the rug out from under me at the last moment, so now it gets torrented. Sorry Mike, blame your managers mate.
To those complaining about streaming services, I’ve been using free alternative streaming websites for years and haven’t had an issue.
Star Trek is the only reason I’m paying for Paramount+.
If Lower Decks and/or SNW go, I go.
Exactly! ✊
Paramount couldn’t be dumb enough to cancel its best Star Trek series, could it?
(Remembers that someone at Paramount gave us six seasons of Two Broke Girls)
…probably.
Ouch
Remember that stretch of a dozen years or so during which Paramount cancelled every Trek TV series?
Get them to stop making their own damn streaming platforms, pick one or two and just live with those.
I want to see lower decks, but I’m not paying for yet another streaming platform to do so.
Lower Decks is amazing, and Strange New Worlds is also amazing. They did a crossover episode that was amazing.
I refuse to pay for Paramount on a consistent basis, and it’s frustrating canceling and resubscribing anytime a new show comes out.
They can have as many platforms as they like, we don’t want monopolies, duopolies or such, they just have to license out their works to others!
This is the literal only reason I haven’t tuned in. I’m not signing up and keeping track of yet another streaming service, especially one that’s only has one thing I want to watch. This show is the only one I’m actually missing right now.
I will say, I’ve been getting a lot more useful things done once I started cancelling streaming services that I hadn’t watched anything on in months.
The seven seas welcome ye matey
When I clear a few time-sensitive projects, a Jellyfin deep dive is probably in the works.
Yeah, that’s the irritating thing about P+, they think they’re worth the same as D+ a month with only one big franchise to their name. D+ brought together Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and Fox content before launching.
If they get rid of lower decks and don’t give us legacy imma scream
At my age you just get used to TV execs cancelling every good show way too early. Only shit is allowed to survive.
This is one tangible draw back to being on the fediverse instead of mainstream social media - no one at companies are going to be watching or considering engagement here. So if it sort of locks us out of fan noise. I guess keep streaming it
I love Star Trek Lower Decks but it’s really clear lately that the assholes at the top (of all profit oriented entertainment megacorps) don’t give a shit what the users want. Only a new user is important as that increases cash flow, the idiots who are already paying are at their whims.
With how many Lower Decks gifs I’ve been using, the show should never end
First off, I want very much for Lower Decks and Prodigy to continue.
That said, I would love to see Paramount+ crash and burn to the fucking ground, taking all the execs and bean counters down with it. Same with HBO Max, or Plus, or Minus, or whatever the fuck they rebranded to this week. Let them ALL fail and be sold for pennies on the dollar so that someone with half a brain can pick up the pieces.
Please keep in mind that not everyone on other Fediverse instances have access to the one you’re linking to. The same article can be accessed publically by any visitor at this URL:
I’m not linking to an instance, I’m linking to a Star Trek fan site. I’m not sure what I did wrong?
You did nothing wrong; I tried to visit the link you posted initially (the thread of which is located on the sopuli.xyz instance; I am on the meow.social instance) and was instructed that I needed to log in to that instance to access the thread wherein the article was hotlinked out of.
For whatever reason the second time I did so I was able to enter the thread you linked to and could visit the Trekmovie site it linked out to. I don’t believe there was remotely any malfeasance on your part, only that on my initial attempt to use the link I couldn’t access it.
Weird, I didn’t link to my instance or a thread on my instance at all. From what I can see I posted the exact same link that you did - direct to trekmovie.com. Not sure what is going on.
Anyone else having this issue?
URL worked for me
