Paramount+ is here, bringing yet another streaming service into an already crowded market. To be fair, Paramount+ isn’t entirely new – it’s a rebranding of CBS All Access, with even more stuff. But will it find subscribers in a world that’s already oversaturated with studios launching their own streaming services? Time will tell! For now, in the spirit of drawing in viewers, Paramount+ has released a series of premiere episodes of various shows directly to YouTube, and we’ve gone ahead and rounded them up below.
On March 4, ViacomCBS’ existing subscription video-on-demand and live streaming service, CBS All Access, rebranded and relaunched as Paramount+, bringing subscribers “feature content from ViacomCBS’ leading portfolio of broadcast, news, sports and entertainment brands.” Wow, there’s nothing more magical than the term “entertainment brands,” is there?
