There are a lot of paid streaming services out there, each touting their own original programming. CBS's CBS On Demand recently rolled out what will probably be their biggest show yet: Star Trek: Picard. Starring Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard, the movie picks up over a decade after we last saw Picard in the final Star Trek: The Next Generation film, 2002's  Star Trek: Nemesis. Picard is now retired from Starfleet -- and seems a bit disgruntled with them -- and runs a winery in France where he lives with two Romulans and his pitbull, charmingly named Number One. He may not be the next "Baby Yoda," but he's definitely cute.

If you're not sure you want to make the plunge to pay for another streaming service, CBS On Demand has offered the first episode for free on YouTube (last night, episode two dropped on the service). Watch it below.

Brian has been working in pop culture and media for about three decades: he’s worked at MTV, VH1, SiriusXM, CBS and Loudwire. Besides working as a writer and an editor-in-chief, he’s also appeared on air as a pundit, guested on radio shows and hosted podcasts. Over the years, he’s interviewed the surviving members of Led Zeppelin, the members of U2, Beyonce, Pink, Usher, Stevie Nicks, Lorde… and is grateful to have had the chance to interview Joe Strummer of the Clash and Tom Petty.
