How lazy. They're just taking Disney+ and shoving Paramount in there.

Should be "Paramount: You Just Have This For Star Trek, Admit It".

How lazy. They're just taking Disney+ and shoving Paramount in there. "We'll call it Paramount+!" "Just like Disney+ & Apple TV+? "Err, yeah. Okay then, what if we take the name of one of our most high profile cable channels and rebrand as Showtime Max? Or do what Comcast did and take something recognisable like a logo from our most prominent Network and we call it Eye?" "Don't forget to remove some of our biggest film franchises after only two months because they're supposed to be on one of our rivals, and we won't do something silly like have it available through Amazon Firestick or Roku" "One last name suggestion? What about Viabi, as in Viacom Bites?"

Yeah the problem with CBS All Access is the name...
I mean you could make an argument that part of HBO Max's problems are name related... but only because there were 2 other HBO (whatever) services that already existed.

Just rename it Paramount All Access?
But then, the problem with all these streaming services is that very few have the library depth to justify being separate from the Netflixes and Hulus of the world. Disney+ is the exception to the rule. HBO Max would've been if AT&T's implementation of it wasn't so ass-backwards.

Now that the remerger happened and they're this serious about streaming, I wonder if they'll give it for those who already pay for Showtime like how people who already pay for HBO should get HBO Max.

Yeah the name always made it sound like it was just an extension of their app that already existed but now you gotta pay for it and some originals that they won’t put on real cbs. Kind of like how much of the stuff on Peacock is still on the nbc app (and in some cases only on the nbc app like saved by the bell new class)

I'm a fan of the classics so The Paramount name has a lot of value to me. I'm all for this.
