This, plus a somewhat fraught political atmosphere, means that you might be looking for reliable, affordable ways to escape the doldrums.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">You don\u2019t need us to tell you that a way to do that is by watching some movies and TV shows. Through September 18th, Paramount is offering a doozy of a deal on both tiers of its Plus streaming service. You can save 50 percent on an annual subscription to <a href=\"https:\/\/paramountplus.qflm.net\/c\/482924\/175360\/3065?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.paramountplus.com%2F&amp;subId2=%5Bvg0912awD%5D%5B771361%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5B%5D%5Btheverge.com%5D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Paramount Plus Essential, or its mostly ad-free Premium<\/a> plan. The Essential Plan is down to $29.99 (from $59.99) and a Premium plan goes to $59.99 (from $119.99). The neat thing is that you can take advantage of this whether you\u2019re a new or a returning subscriber (but be careful to mark your calendar; it will renew after that year at full price).<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-block\">\n<h3>Paramount Plus Essential (annual subscription)<\/h3>\n<div class=\"product-description\">Essential gets you ad-supported access to TV shows and movies. You won\u2019t be able to download content, but you get many of the same benefits as Premium.<\/div>\n<h3>Where to Buy:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplus.com\/?cbscidmt=nfl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$59.99<\/strike> $29.99 at <strong>Paramount Plus<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"product-block\">\n<h3>Paramount Plus Premium (annual subscription)<\/h3>\n<div class=\"product-description\">The Premium tier allows for downloads, and content can be viewed without ads (except during live TV).

The latter also lets you download your shows, which could be very handy when you\u2019re traveling with kids, and from its library of Showtime Originals. Either way, you not only get recent shows like <em>Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/em>, the entire\u00a0<em>Yellowston<\/em>e catalog,\u00a0<em>Top Gun: Maverick<\/em>, <em>Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/em>, and\u00a0<em>Bob Marley: One Love<\/em>, but animation series like <em>South Park<\/em> and <em>SpongeBob<\/em> <em>Squarepants<\/em>, and live NFL games. Also, it hosts every <em>Mission Impossible<\/em> movie, aside from the latest one, <em>The Final Reckoning<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other deals our readers loved this week<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lego kits are really popular, but the more elaborate types can quickly get pricey.
