Google TV integration with Paramount+ is currently broken on Chromecast

One of the big benefits of Google TV is its ability to dig through the catalogs of various streaming services and allow you to search for content from everywhere in one place. Unfortunately, though, the directory Google TV uses for Paramount+ appears to be acting up at the moment.

While Paramount+ is one of the 30+ services that Google lists as supported by its universal search, the directory is at least partially broken at the moment. This becomes evident when you search for content that’s on Paramount+ through Google TV, but the service isn’t listed as an option. Despite my Paramount+ subscription account actively being linked to my account on a Chromecast, TV shows and movies that are on the service don’t appear. Examples include Sonic the Hedgehog, Infinite, Star Trek: Picard, The Stand, and others. In fact, we couldn’t find a single show or movie with Paramount+ as an option through Google TV, but we were able to use Assistant to launch some shows in the app. Even that, however, was inconsistent.

In a slightly odd issue, Paramount+ integration with Google TV appears to be broken as Chromecast owners can't see the service's directory.

The good thing is that they said apart from Google TV they will bring it to eligible Android TV devices as well. Which sparks hope that they may roll out support for Indian OTTs as well and aggregate the live channels of those apps and group them in the live TV tab which may function similar to what Jio Tv+ does in the Jio STBs. A similar implementation is already present in Fire TV OS, shouldn't be difficult for Google to implement it in Android TV.
