    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.

        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

      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.
