Ouch, that must hurt for Kate Mulgrew and the team.

Why would Paramount remove the existing episodes from streaming service though? They have everything else Trek.

@triktrek Same reason HBO removed Westworld... Saving on residuals. All about that bottom line, amirite? ๐Ÿ™„

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Ah so it is just about residuals, I was just speculating on another comment that that might be the reason.

This fucking sociopathic cutthroat capitalism where literally nothing matters except squeezing more money out of everyone is getting real damn old

And one of the main reasons for the writers going on strike.

If there's really low viewership, it can cost more to keep it on the platform, as they still have to pay some royalties and stuff for it being there.

Same reason that Disney is pulling lots of shows from Disney+ and Hulu right now.

It sucks a lot for those of us who really like it.

Fucking shifting business fiefdoms. This is why I don't trust streaming at all.
