[Updated] 1923 not showing on Paramount Plus or Amazon Prime? Here's what you should know

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on December 19, 2022) follows:

Harrison Ford made the leap from the big screen to television by appearing in the western series 1923. The cast is filled with superstars like Helen Mirren and the GOT fame Jerome Flynn is also part of it.

The first episode aired on December 18, 2022, and the anticipation around it was massive. However, some viewers are disappointed as they are unable to watch it.

According to some, 1923 is not showing or unavailable on the Paramount Plus platform (1,2,3,4,5).

When impacted subscribers try to watch the first episode of 1923, they only see the trailer or a bonus video. The episode is either missing or not available at all.

This is very odd as 1923 is a Paramount Plus exclusive series that is a prequel to its’ massively popular show Yellowstone.

This issue has made subscribers anxious as they are unable to watch the show no matter how many times they try.

Been trying to watch 1923 on Paramount. Anyone else know what time it premiers? I’ve seen info that says 9 pm, 12 am and 3 am yesterday or today. I’m so confused. It’s been a crappy day. Love to you all xo

Why isn’t the first episode on my watchlist? The trailer is but not the first episode! Any idea why?

Amazon Prime users with the Paramount Plus add-on are also affected, as they receive a notification for the episode but it is not available (1,2,3,4,5).

Some Amazon Prime subscribers believe they have been scammed as they are not getting the show’s episodes despite having purchased the Paramount Plus add-on.

Can’t believe you SCAMMED everyone who subscribed through @PrimeVideo! My son and I were so excited to watch! I might skip it now just because you ripped us off! Enjoy your sacks of cash

Paramount Plus subscribers on Amazon Prime are already at a disadvantage as they have to wait an extra day (1,2) to watch the episode.

This has led to such extreme circumstances that some Prime users have canceled their subscriptions or are on the cusp of it (1,2).

I# I just cancelled my Paramount on Prime because I can’t watch 1923. Downloaded Paramount on Roku and watching E1 now. It’s cheaper on Roku as there is a $4.99 option and $9.99 option.

Yellowstone went through a similar ordeal when Season 5 was unavailable on Paramount Plus and Amazon Prime.

We hope that the episode will be made available as soon as possible so that 1923 fans can continue to enjoy the series.

Until then, we will keep an eye on the situation and update this post as new information becomes available, so keep checking back.

04:56 pm (IST): Although many viewers were unable to see the show premiere, that didn’t stop it from smashing the current Paramount+ viewership record.

The premiere reportedly achieved around 7.4 million total viewers, being 80% above the previous audience record on the platform.

11:44 pm (IST): Some Paramount+ users report a delay in the availability of the 1923 latest episode (1, 2, 3, 4).

They feel that the delay is a strategy to force users to extend their subscriptions while the new episodes of the show arrive.

They’re trying to get another monthly payment from everyone for paramount+ since they know everyone will cancel their sub as soon as 1923 is over. If there’s 2 million people watching that’s another $10 million
