I wish it was being replaced lol.
but yeah as someone else said just update it.
You get a logo change and a few new shows added for your trouble. Same garbage app as always.

After such a massive marketing campaign with Super Bowl ads and everything, I was expecting something a bit more than just a CBS -> Paramount logo change.

Boggles my mind how this service (CBS All Access) launched in 2014 and there's still not a watch list feature 7 years later. That's like a day one requirement for any streaming service.

That's my thoughts. I was really hoping it would at least add a watch list. Until they do I will not stop calling it a garbage app to everyone I know lol.

Gonna guess that music rights are keeping Liquid Television and Remote Control off the service, which is frustrating but sadly commonplace.

I only got it thanks to the Sportsline deal when it was $10 and no watch list would have been a deal breaker otherwise. I also didn't know it's been 7 years and they haven't added the most basic feature that every single competitor has. That's insane and it's also the reason I haven't been too inclined to watch anything on the app.

Kind of looking forward to rewatching a few more episodes of DS9 and Voyager on here later this evening. It's a weird feeling, I mean, it's just a rebranding. But it feels different. Paramount and Star Trek were synonymous for so long.

Before the dark times.

Before... the divorce.

First episode of Kamp Koral on YT

Oh boy...I would have been fine with if it looked like the parts from the movie but this feels really cheap and they even keep the OG voice actors too, despite most of them being children 🤨

For anybody else having trouble with a roku tv ( I have a tcl P series)

I couldn't log into the app. Also apparently password reset is not working for me even on PC.

I tried to login to Sportsline since my subscription is through them and it no longer even shows a sub for CBS. I was pretty worried.

What I had to do:

Manually update your software in the settings on your tv. Restart your tv.
At that point when I accessed the app I didn't even need to login in, it just logged in with my old info same as with All Access.

the app broke with the change. no update, no way to log in as your account is no longer a cbs all access account it's a paramount+ account. thus when you updated the app it fixed it.

Yeah that makes sense. I will note though that the app said Paramount + and NOT CBS All Access.

Thankfully it was an autoupdate once I selected to update software. So I'm assuming the app would have updated on its own eventually.

However, on my Mom's Vizio television the app just changed and she logged in without issues, but I'm assuming it was autoupdated while my app just hadn't yet.

For whatever reason, this is the only app I use on my Xbox One X that doesn't recognize the media keys on my media remote. I can't forward/rewind with their dedicated buttons, I have to hold either the left or right arrows on the remote. A shame too, because the content itself, especially on the animated side, is incredible imo.

I was just happy to receive a confirmation email from Amazon indicating my CBS All-Access subscription (through Prime) was transferring over to Paramount+ without having to do anything.

This has been my favorite thing about paramount plus, I had been watching it on Netflix and there are only 2 seasons on there.

I was happily surprised to see like 10 seasons on paramount! I didn't even know the show has been running that long!

Also paramount plus seems to run better on my ps4 compared to cbs all access which half the time would get stuck on a loading screen or ad

Would you mind checking out the picture quality on Picard on Discovery on Roku when you get a chance? Those two shows appear washed out and very soft on my Roku player. Other original shows look fine, but those two look bad. They looked fine on CBS All Access on Roku until a week or so ago and then they changed. I assumed it was part of the P+ transition.

Yeah, definitely doesn't seem as clear as it should be for a new release. Washed out seems accurate. But, I have a 2017 so I'm not exactly on the cutting edge at this point.

Thanks. I wonder if it is because those shows are 1080p with Dolby Vision enabled? 4K content like the Spongebob movie looks fine with DV enabled, as does 1080p content without DV enabled, but the 1080p content with DV like Discovery and Picard look off.

I can't restore my CBS iTunes purchase on Apple TV. It just puts me into an endless sign in loop. My wife is sad cause she can't watch inkmaster.

Same. Watched the first 2 on Netflix and then I was bored and Amazon had CBS for 5 bucks so I got it and bam! Wish the last two were on here but good enough. Makes me want a tattoo...

I've had CBS All Access for years at the premium tier, mainly for Survivor and Big Brother. I can't say I see any difference aside from the logo with the service, but I love that the rebrand and paramount mountain ad campaign appears to be working if a thread like this now exists.

Wonder Showzen is now streaming on Paramount+, finally bringing something of worth to this service. Can't wait to watch it all this weekend.

I got 18mos of this for $10 and I don't even think it's worth that much. Other than Trek there's so little on it worth watching.

Full episode for fellow olds


I watch this morning with the biggest smile on my face. I didn't watch the original season when it came out but I got very into The Real World as a teenager and went back. This is the first show that will really make me engage abd watch weekly on this service.
