BTG: History, Behind the Scenes Articles & Photos

[Rmodelboy]

Thank you !!!!!! This soap is pretty good hands .

I feel so so so good, and confident, because not only is MVJ an excellent, seasoned veteran writer but she's the first black to be in the position she is in & also the first soap HW to also be a Show Runner! When I see her name & the string of titles: Creator, Headwriter, Executive Producer and Show Runner, I am filled with joy. So many firsts & so well deserved! And, the icing she's also a woman.

BTG on Paramount+ with Showtime

So, if you watch on this you are paying extra to get the show on the day of rather than the next day. However, the result is not 2 pm/live. I just got off the phone with Help/Support & today, S1E4, loaded at 5:20 Eastern & they indicated I could count on that time daily. 

It seems weird that it's not 2 pm/live. I did this for the Emmys & that was live.

I feel like there's something basic about people's viewing habits & desires that they are fundamentally missing!

I wish CBS/Paramount+ would move to a streaming-first model. ITV streams its soaps at 7am the day of broadcast.

Peacock has DAYS up at 5 or 6 am. I can't remember which. Previously I watched it then.

Are you saying you want to watch it live during its broadcast airing time? If so with that package you just have to go to the CBS local station feed attached to your account and its right there

I honestly hate that and prefer the upload to be after the national airing. I always have to avoid Eastenders and Corrie spoilers on my timeline super early in the AM, I was happy BBC waited to upload during the EE anniversary week.

I used to have ParamountPlus with showtime.
I could watch shows live on my local channel (as stated above).
So you could watch BTG at the same time that your local channel airs it.

I now have plain ParamountPlus *without* showtime.
BTG is uploaded there and also to cbs.com about an hour after it airs in Pacific Time.
That's SAME DAY (not next day).
On Monday Feb. 24, it was up at 2pm Pacific, 5pm Eastern.
Today Thurs Feb. 27, it was up at 3pm Pacific, 6pm Eastern.

If you think it's likely up but can't see it on the menu, then try this:
Watch the last five minutes of yesterday's episode, and it will segue into the start of today's episode.  If it's on the site but not on the menu yet, that will work.
If it's not on the site yet, then you have to wait.

Thanks so much. I need to experiment because I'm going to change my plan & get a refund, if so. I just don't understand  it because it worked, as promised, for the last 2 Daytime Emmys, so why is this different?

 

Yes & no. But, wait, I have a CBS feed in my Paramount+ w/S account? But, anyway, if it's there & I can access, once it's up it stays up, right? Like if I can't watch it till 4 eastern, it will continue to be accessible to me? I'm really not stupid. I'm thrown because something apparently exists that I had no knowledge of!!

Edit to Add: So if I select Live TV it's just whatever is on ATM & I don't see a way to go back to an earlier time. Right? If so, this doesn't help me at all.
