    Beyond the Star Trek Discovery curiosity, I did not find it worth it. Once I watched, did not renew after the free trial.

    Suppose it depends on how you feel about access to just about all of CBS' back catalog. I mean, I know not everyone is as easily satisfied as I am with old episodes of Twilight Zone or The Carol Burnett Show...

    Apparently the entire back catalog. (Haven't checked it out personally yet, but that seems to be what the ad copy says...)

    They've also got another original show on the platform besides DSC, The Good Fight, which is a sequel series to the legal/political/family drama The Good Wife. And there's some good CBS original sci-fi on there that would be difficult to find elsewhere (thinking of Extant and Under the Dome, the latter an adaptation of a Stephen King novel).

    So, depends on your tastes: other streaming services have many of the shows, especially Star Trek, but there's certain things you won't find elsewhere.

    I was watching the original Mission:Impossible from 1960's...to fill out the remainder of the time on the free trial. Star Trek Discovery was on for an hour once a week.

    But re-watching old TV shows didn't hook me to buy CBS All Access, month after month.

    Just move to the civilised world and watch it on Netflix until it comes out on DVD.

    We already have Netflix and Amazon, CBS should just dump all their programmes on one of them. But like every other American TV producer they're setting up their own to leach as much cash out of people as possible.

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.
