Best movies and shows on Paramount+ right now, ranked
Paramount+ combines CBS shows, Paramount Pictures films, Paramount+ originals and a deep catalog of classic TV. This list ranks the highest-rated movies and series you can stream with a Paramount+ subscription in the US.
How this is ranked: when a title has at least 5 ratings from Wochly users, its score is their average. Otherwise we use TMDB’s user rating weighted by how many people voted, so a title with a handful of votes can’t outrank an established favorite. Community ratings are still sparse for Paramount+, so most scores below are the weighted TMDB signal (marked “TMDB, weighted”); green scores come from Wochly users. Availability comes from JustWatch via TMDB and is re-checked every few hours.
