Until I found out it is only available on CBS All Access which is a PAY SERVICE!!!!!!!!! No thanks. As much as I love the CBS programming, this is a notch in the negative for them.
shareFYI, the first episode is on TV, and then it moves online...
shareYeah, it's kinda weird to have a show receiving such anticipation be available on their subscription service, unless they're expecting this show to bring in new subscribers with only 10 episodes.
shareA bunch of streaming sites (projectfreetv.com, couchtuner.com, watch seriesonline) will most likely upload the episodes on to their websites after they go on the CBS All ACCESS App. I will be using those streaming sites to watch the show for free in great quality.
shareNot to mention Popcorn Time.

aliyahrocks, you don't have a job, to where you can afford $6/month? If you don't think it is worth it then don't buy it...you don't have to steal it. :)

I don't think it would be advantageous on my part to pay 7$ ($11 because I don't like ads) for a subscription service just to watch one show.
shareHaving a job is besides the point. We already pay astronomical fees for cable. Why should we have to pay extra for some shows??? It's disappointing that they want to milk more $$ out of us.
shareExactly. I watched every episode of The Good Wife and was only truly disappointed by one episode (actually only the last 20 minutes of the last episode) and Diane was always my favorite, so I was looking forward to this. But not enough to watch it through an app. The Good Wife was a critical success on CBS - it makes no sense to get trendy with the spinoff. I won't even watch the first episode - I'd rather not know if I'm missing anything vs. being disappointed that I'll be missing it.
shareI can't think of anything more absurd than the idea of asking anyone to a penny for a certain show when they've already got satellite, cable, Netflix, and Amazon Prime--so there is less than zero reason for them to be denied access to any program.
I'm interested in Star Trek (because I'm a Trekkie) and in The Good Fight (because I love Christine Baranski), but purely on principle I would hold out for some other option there. So far beyond ridiculous. CBS, you can't take your (potentially) good shows and say, "Ha ha, you have to specifically buy these!" Just put it on TV. I don't understand.
If you have not been living under the rock ,Netflix has inked agreement with Cbs to get exclusive rights for streaming Star Trek new series in 188 countries world wide including usa
shareIt'll be on Netflix? YEESSS!!!
Still don't know why they wouldn't simply put it on TV, but that's the next best thing.
No need for the ridiculous "living under the [sic] rock" bit, though--this was clearly not made into big news at all.
