Forbes Article: Why One Should Pay for CBS All Access

Canon has been violated so many times even the word itself has probably been violated too. 
All Access does not use the public airwaves as the broadcast network does, and therefore is not beholden to FCC rules and standards.
I was thinking more along the lines of them bringing regular CBS shows over but it would make sense to create more shows just for all-access but I wonder if they have the money to do that. I doubt Netflix is going to pay for all their shows like they did for "Discovery."
I have a question. Is CBS and the CW owned by the same company? I was wondering how "Supergirl" was able to switch sites. I was thinking about this in terms of wondering if maybe they might start creating some cheap but afforable CW level comic book shows like "Arrow" and "The Flash" etc. Also we all know "Supernatural" has another 10 years in it where the boys will still somehow never age so maybe that will comes over in the future.

Pretty much every show that airs on CBS can be watched "on-demand" via CBS All Access, although the service only typically has the most recent episodes of a given series available in groupings of 5.
Yeah, I do that with Netflix every now and then. If there isn't any new episodes of their originals, I pause my subscription.
A while back, I think they said CAA could be shared with up to five devices. Or watched by five devices simultaneously or something.
I just checked the CBS FAQ, and this is what they said:

There's no censorship on CAA. "The Good Fight" has used every single curse word I can imagine throughout its first season.

Star Trek is their second original scripted series. The Good Fight came out earlier this year and it didn't have a Netflix deal involved there. They have three new shows coming next year that have already been announced, including a comedy produced by Will Ferrell and his production company.

"You there, thanks for the dough!"
Yeah, why wouldn't he. I wouldn't mind being in his position, and most people probably wouldn't mind either. He's running a business. Star Trek wouldn't exist or have lasted this long if someone didn't want to make money off of it, be it NBC/Desilu back in the 60's, and then Paramount/Viacom/UPN/CBS after that.Les loves your $$$
I got to admit I kind of dislike Moonves because of that quote he had during the election and how they covered Trump. Said something like how "It might not be good for the country but it was good for CBS" which means I kind of hope he fails and CBS-all-access goes down and he takes the blame.
