Everyone’s new favorite show, Star Trek: Picard, has captured fans’ imaginations. Sir Patrick Stewart‘s return as his iconic character Jean-Luc Picard has everyone excited for the next seasons since they got greenlit for a second and third season.

However, due to the pandemic, the second season won’t start filming until February 2021. Thankfully, while you wait, you can catch up on the first season, which premiered this past year. Finding the show is another matter entirely. Though CBS owns it, it is not in their television line up. It is an exclusive show to their streaming service CBS All Access.

CBS All Access

This streaming service combines the platform’s original programming, such as Star Trek: Picard, and their classic television shows such as Survivor and NCIS. You can also find shows from networks like BET, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, and the Smithsonian Channel on the platform.

Before you commit to the new streaming service, you can utilize their one week trial. Then, CBS All Access has two different plans to choose from, their Limited Commercials plan or their Commercial Free plan. For the first one, you will get to watch everything they have to offer with some commercials at $6 per month or $60 per year, which saves you 15% each month.

The second plan gives you access to all the same fantastic content without any commercials so you can never see an ad again. This plan is a bit more expensive for the convenience at $10 per month or $100 per year, saving you 15% per month.

If you have Amazon Prime, you can also add CBS All Access to your account and watch the show on either platform for the same rates.
