It isn’t cheap to be a Star Trek fan, but at least it’s cheaper than being a fan of other shows and movies. If you want to watch any Star Trek iteration that’s ever existed, all you have to do is pay $7.99 a month (or $59.99 a year) for that sweet, sweet Paramount+ subscription. If you’re a Harry Potter fan or a Tolkien enjoyer, you must pay $9.99 a month (or $99.99 a year) for Max, formerly known as HBO Max. You’ll have to cough up more dough if you want to watch without ads. The home of Star Trek is $12.99 per month, and the home of Harry Potter is $16.99 a month if you don’t want commercials. It’s almost as if we’ve reinvented cable and will have to solve the same problems for the rest of time. If time marching on and cycles repeating are of interest to you, these Star Trek memes might help with the frustration.
