  • Anyone know how to redeem this through Prime channels? All I see in Prime is the $5/month for 3 months offer.

      From their own site

      $5/month for 3 months offer.

      I'm on that at the moment and struggling to find anything worth watching…

      • That’s what I’ve heard, Amazon has more content apparently and that’s not much at all

        • Amazon Movies are a real shocker, nothing to watch with an average of 4.5 in IMDB
          Netflix has dropped the ball to and not many new releases

          • +1

            @cameldownunder: Amazon is just background noise for me, utter crap, Netflix is going the same way

          • +1

            @cameldownunder: For lovers of extremely B-Grade movies, Prime is where it's at.

            I'm only keeping my account for the free games and next day deliveries.

        Personally I want paramount plus just for twilight zone atm

    • You can't get the annual plan through Amazon Prime Video.
      All you can get is Paramount on Prime Video for $9.99 a month, Right now they're offering $5 a month for 3 months. If you akready have Paramount through Prime, simply go to cancel it and you'll get the offer.

      Apparently you can watch Prime through the Paramount App though once you purchase directly through paramount, though Im struggling to find the link to do so as it just opens the app and you cant verify your Prime account there.

    This should be the regular price.

        All this parroting about being stumped about what to do is useless, they really don’t have a leg to stand on.

    • +1

      Maybe regular rate should be $3.14 per month?

  • I'd be happy to join someone's family plan at this price.

    • Same :)

    I signed up to this offer last year and it is about to expire. I only watch it for the Aleagues and it is cheaper to use a VPN and watch it on Youtube. Have not consumed one other piece of content from their catalogue in my time. The platform is still clunky and not user friendly and not worth the money,

    • +12

      Worth it for:

      Nathan for you
      The Curse
      Yellowjackets

      Actually that's all I've watched. Not worth it.

      • +1

        South Park new season.
        Dexter

        • +4

          FYI, South Park is censored on Paramount+

      • Yep. Nathan for you and Yellowjackets are great. Watched the new top gun movie on it. That was all in a year. Didn’t renew. Won’t even at half price.

      • +2

        Try Rabbit Hole and Lioness. Really enjoyed both of those. Mine just expired and I'm not going to renew.

      • Watched Nathan for you when it came out in 2013.

      • Yellowjackets Season 1*

      • I saw that Yellowjackets is going on Netflix soon too. But that was while i was in Thailand and I'll bet there'll be some sort of international limitation?

      • Reno 911
        Key and Peele
        Nathan Fielder's new show, The Curse, is also on there (haven't seen it yet)

    • +8

      Yeah, clunky is the word, but there are shows on there that I did like. Plus if you are a Star Trek fan there is a lot of content.
      Stuff I've watched and enjoyed:-
      Yellowjackets
      Tokyo Vice
      The Offer
      The Gilded Age
      Top Gun: Maverick
      Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
      1883
      1923
      The Good Fight
      Why Women Kill
      Mayor of Kingstown
      Ray Donovan

        I had no luck with stability with the Paramount+ (android) app… Very disappointed with quality and stability. I cancelled the trial twice (a year apart) because the issues remained and hadn't been corrected.

        Now subscribed to the (Amazon) Prime Paramount+ channel and performance and stability are excellent. Strangely, some TV Series (NCIS: Sydney) had both the Australian release and the US release running side-by-side, but this appears to have been corrected.

        I don't know at this stage whether I would continue past the 3 month trial period I signed up for at the Amazon Prime Black Friday sale.

        • +1

          Yep it's shite on the Google TV too. So many playback issues

    • Is there a legit overseas YouTube stream for aleagues?

      • Keepup YouTube channel. Just VPN to any country without any existing rights.

        Warning that the YT streams have a really annoying (imo) CGI ad for a betting site throughout the game (CGI'd onto the stadium hoardings).

        With the 50% off I'm happy enough watching on Paramount (makes it easy on my TV too).

        • Do you know if you can watch a game on YT that has just finished? Ie watch from the start?

          The other day, the Adelaide United game had just finished (and they had presumably wrapped up the after-game analysis) but I was unable to watch it on "replay". It only became available to watch many hours later.

          • +1

            @Qbagger: Usually you can. It's just a normal YT broadcast.

          • @Qbagger: I had that experience the other day with P+, but found out you can select the live stream (i.e. post-game) and move the cursor back through the entire stream in a second or two. Not the best experience, but a way to watch the game in full until it hits “replay” hours later.

            • @bargainsfortheppl: That sounds like a good workaround but in my instance the live stream disappeared within 15 mins of the broadcast concluding so I couldn't do the rewind trick.

    • +1

      Since you already have it, Yellowjackets. It's really good!

      Also in the A League camp. For convenience more than anything else. I can be at a mate's house and Chromecast it to their telly. VPN makes that harder.

  • This is bad news for my attempt to sell an 12 months subscription voucher!

    • $5 ?

      I just saw this 🤣

      Such bad timing, but that's this time of year for anything.

      Half the shit on FB MP is more than sale prices!

  • +2

    What's the difference between Standard and Premium?

    • +1

      4K. Finally. And 4 devices vs 2

      • Is A-league in 4K?

        • +2

          Nope.

          • +2

            @iguana: Bugger. The 1080 stream has a disgusting bitrate for this day and age.

  • I have Netflix because I share a plan with my parents. I have Prime because always had a Prime subscription because I buy a shitload off Amazon. I recently signed up to Binge which is owned by Foxtel, a bit cheaper at $18 per month for 4K and 2 devices. I found Binge to be quite good. I'm not sure if Paramount+ is worth getting for that once off price on top of these 3 I already have? Anything I want to watch I torrent download anyway e.g. Apple TV shows etc.

    • Exactly, if it's cheap I'd pay as of ease and quality but I can download anything I want which is free.

      Apple TV at $20 a year is good, but I cbf doing it through India.

    • +7

      That's not how you do it these days.

      Prime's worth keeping if you shop on Amazon, but the rest you just sign up for a month or two, watch everything good they have, and cancel.

      You get to watch everything, there's no fiddling with torrents or servers, and the whole thing costs less than 4k Netflix alone.

      • +2

        Also sharing accounts works a treat. ie signup, watch everything, give your friends your login, let them watch everything, then cancel.

        Amazon Prime is the only account I keep because of the shopping.

        • +2

          By the time you cycle through them all, a month or two each of Netflix, Disney+, Stan, Binge, and Paramount+, it's been 6 months or more and so next turn they've got a bunch of new shows, new seasons, and new movies.

          And less time spent "doomscrolling" to decide what to watch (only to run out of time without watching anything), since you're not checking multiple streamers.

    • +3

      If you already torrent downloading then just use stremio and save your money.

    • +1

      Binge after a while you find it's hard to find what to watch. App doesn't remember which episodes you watch last if you switch between devices, cannot remove continued watch and many other annoying issues. the only app that Google TV cannot pull to it's home page and a lot of new movies are the same as Netflix. I signed to Stan and the app is really good and seems to have a lot of great content so far. I like how it's the only app that has fraction of second displaying it's logo.

  • +6

    One good thing on Paramount that is definitely worth watching is The Betoota Advocate Presents Great true Australian stories told with a typical Aussie laid-back tongue-in-cheek style vibe.

    • +3

      I actually watched the Fine Cotton episode on Ch10 one night and it was 10/10. I love Betoota as it is, but they really stepped it up with this show.

      Those guys really lost me through the whole referendum

      Great true Australian stories told with a typical Aussie laid-back tongue-in-cheek style vibe.

      I watched one show on Hillsong and found it a bit cringe. I'm no fan of Hillsong, but it came across as a bit of a beat-up with stupid exaggerated animations to creatively add drama that didn't actually happen IRL. Also the Ocker-Aussie-bloke struth, fair dinkum, digger, cobber shtick is just tacky. Throw another shrimp on the barbie!

  • I dunno if you can renew for half price for existing subscribers

    From their website: "For new and former subscribers only"

    So cancel and rejoin

    • Does this work? I’m on the free month now which expires on the 8th. This offer expires before.

      Anyone tested cancel and rejoin and get the offer?

      • Sign up using a new email address. All new users get the 50% annual discount.

    Nothing to watch on this crap

    • South park

      • It's only limited episodes of the show & they censored them, too.

    • Twilight zone the original

  • Players was worth the fee last year alone!! (Yellowjackets is just the cherry on top!)

    • +1

      Didn't know of this show, I'm an avid gamer, will download, thanks!

  • Why pay? There is a free trial code almost every month. The only reason I can see anyone signing up for a year it's either for the Premium plan or because it's just easier and more convenient instead of doing a new account every month.
    But still free it's better.

    • +2

      Yeah, someone like my mum won't set it up every month.

      I guess people use disposable emails, it's easy enough!

  • +3

    Great price for any Star Trek fans

    • +5

      Agreed, loving strange new worlds, especially subspace rhapsody

  • FYI - Yellowjackets is coming to Netflix

    • Only for the past seasons or also including the new season coming next year?

      Edit: I just looked it up, no confirmation of Australia, only Brazil and a few other selected countries.

      2nd Edit: Looks like it is on Netflix Australia on 15th December.

    This or RealDebrid. Not much of a question I guess…

  • This site has info on the premium package for those who want to read up about it before having to create an account: https://www.finder.com.au/paramount-plus-ad-and-premium-tier…
    There's no mention of DD 5.1 or Dolby Atmos, so I presume that's not available, eg for Top Gun 2. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Enjoyed Paramount but found with the new series they drip feed content really slowly, often a multi week delay.

  • +1

    honestly speaking the entire service isnt worth 40 p/yr

  • +7

    Tulsa King 👌

  • +3

    I'd like to offer $4.49 for a year paramount

  • +2

    It also has Dora…. I will try with my kids and see if they like it.
    They have been watching the same Netflix show for 6 months now and still enjoy it. I can’t take it anymore.

  • Fatal Attraction was cancelled, no dice.

  • In the payment process it states that "𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲." Is that not everyone?
    Anyhow I used to pirate download Star Trek and U.S Survivor which are now both available on Paramount+, so at least I can repent at 50% off.

    • I had an existing monthly subscription and switched to the annual plan and was charged the full $89.99. I emailed them and asked for a 50% refund and they gave it to me.

      • I wonder if you could have asked for 2 years with what you paid instead of a refund so $45 a year for 2 years,
        but you already got your refund, so "it's elementary" as they say.

    • Existing don’t get it by the sound of it.

  • paramount is worst OTT service ever

  • If you like bank robbery/peaky blinkers type of films I highly recommend The Gold series.

  • Signed up this time last year on a similar promo.
    Honestly, it was useless. Poor content, found it very underwhelming.
    Wouldn’t recommend even at 50% off.

  • Don't forget, some content available via TVNZ, (VPN required) https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/749560
    Never bothered, myself though, already watched Dexter…

  • I got the bargain where they got the monthly amount confused with the yearly subscription fee. So I got a year for 8.99. Which was about what it’s worth. About to cancel apply tv as they have put their prices up and I don’t watch anything as there is nothing worth watching. Leaving me only Amazon which is worth it due to Amazon free delivery.
