Paramount's rollout in Europe proceeds but possibly not optimally.

Sci-fi fans would likely be aware that Star Trek is one of Paramount's key properties and that Strange New Worlds premiere's today globally. But Paramount+ won't launch in the UK and Ireland until June 22.

This is reminiscent of the Discovery debacle.

With Discovery's season 4 scheduled to release on Netflix in a matter of days, last November it exited the streaming service entirely and with Paramount+ unavailable in many parts of the world.

The following week Paramount announced arrangements had been made for it to release it on Pluto TV and be available for digital purchase in affected regions.

There hasn't been any indication of these or like arrangements for Strange New Worlds.
