It’s now easier to show on Showtime as it merges with Paramount+. But, there is a higher price to pay for this content…
Let me tell you, watching shows on Showtime was a major pain.
This isn’t news, either. If you watched the 2022 Primetime Emmys, then you remember host Kenan Thompson’s joke about how hard it was to watch certain hit shows like Yellowjackets because it was on Showtime, which had its streaming service for those of you who weren’t aware of yet another streaming service existing.
As someone who had Showtime, the service offers a great selection of films and TV shows that are not on many other streaming services. The only problem is that it isn’t a service that I went to often. Eventually, I forgot about it until I saw that I was still being charged for a monthly subscription.
Well, Showtime realized it wasn’t making any profit in the streaming wars, so it merged with Paramount+. The catch is that this merger isn’t coming cheap for subscribers who want access to Showtime.
