I had Paramount Plus for the sole reason of watching Star Trek and Survivor. I don't have a TV and those were the only two shows I watched. First the producer of Survivor (and The Apprentice) stabbed the country in the back by keeping tapes secret that would have shown trump without his mask on, then Bari Weiss was the last straw.

So, dropping Paramount Plus wasn't just dropping CBS shows, it was dropping the last connection I had to broadcast TV and everything that goes with it.

Kind of shocking since I was raised by the TV.
