The actual app fricking sucks

Love the content on here. It’s the first time I have played around with it. Lots of old stuff, MTV stuff like the entire real World Series and the cheesy CBS shows that I enjoy. CSI Miami is so cheesy which makes it’s great (for me)

The app though is so damn buggy and buffers like crazy. It has potential to be awesome

I use an Apple TV 4K and have never had a single problem with the app.

I was exploring and saw they had a few seasons of Next on there. Used to love that dumb show. My only complaint is that a lot of the MTV shows have a lot of missing seasons, or some shows are missing altogether.

People always say this, but I have had Paramount+ since it's inception (and CBS all access before that), and I have never had a problem on a Firestick, Samsung TV, or a Roku.

I haven't had issues with with Paramount+ app. I got it for live sports but have also found shows to watch on it to help justify the purchase.

Detroiters and The State are what we've watched so far, but there are others I plan to watch.

Are any of the old Showtime shows worth watching?

My main annoyance with these apps - including Netflix - is how the functionality seems to differ if you are casting vs if you are just on your phone, particularly around the jump forward/jump back controls.

I’ve never had any of those issues. The only gripe i have is they kind of switched up the home page where it used to have all your most recently watched shows listed.

And the ad placement is garbage. They don’t even put them at the natural commercial break cliffhanger spots in Star Trek TNG. Makes it a chore to watch.
