The 10-episode miniseries follows Ruddy as he adapts author Mario Puzo's novel, "The Godfather," for the screen. As "The Offer" tells it, Ruddy assembles a dream team, including director Francis Ford Coppola (who co-wrote the script with Puzo) and Hollywood star Marlon Brando, only to see his production challenged by behind-the-scenes tensions -- and a prominent mob boss.
In addition to "The Offer," Several "Godfather" movies are now available to stream on Paramount+: "The Godfather," "The Godfather Part II" and "The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone," the recut version of 1990's "The Godfather: Part III."
New subscribers can try out Paramount+ for a week for free, so there's no risk involved if you're curious about "The Offer" or the "Godfather" saga. You could even say it's an offer too good for any Hollywood fan to refuse.

Roku Streaming Stick+
The Roku Streaming Stick+ has a long-range wireless receiver and allows Bluetooth streaming. It also includes all the features of the Roku Express 4K+ in a smaller, easier-to-conceal device. Instead of connecting to a television via wires, it connects directly to an HDMI port. Note that the Roku Streaming Stick+ still needs to be connected to a power source -- either via a TV USB input or a wall outlet.
"It doesn't have the same bells and whistles that my Roku Ultras have...but then again, I also paid nearly twice as much for those," reviewer K. Krueger says. "This Stick+ is much cheaper and provides basically the same user interface and playback performance."
