Trying to watch PBR Teams. 2/3 of the screen is commercial. You lose the announcers, don’t know the bull or rider and the picture is so small you can’t read the graphics. Turned it off. Ridiculous. I’... See more

The commercials are absolutely ridiculous! You get about 5 mins of movie, and 2.5 minutes of commercials! It's literally so bad I had to research how to give a review. So I could express how awful it... See more

This app intentionally stops and stalls…

This app intentionally stops and stalls so that you are subjected to more and more relentless adds. The only way to restart your show is to go back to the episodes page and restart the episodes of a show and you are forced to watch 5 more minutes of adds. This does not happen when watching a movie. Only a show with episodes. It’s frustrating. Also it skips the end of episodes all together and start on a new episodes before you can watch the ending.

Can you say Commercials?

Way way way way way way too many commercials. Like 2 minutes of show and 5 minutes of commercials all the hour. I forget what I'm watching. Why do I have to watch a commercial about the show I'm trying to watch! Disappointed

This is the most disgusting channel there could possible be. Same commercials and kicks you out of the episode sometimes 4 time to only watch endless commercials. Why would they even attempt this. No other channel I watch for free comes close. They are all ten times better

Advertising Abuse

Far too many ads appearing far too frequently - it destroys any immersion in the programs you try to watch and prevents any enjoyment. It is every 5 minutes (I timed it) and the ads are typically 2.5 minutes with - so a program made to air on broadcast in a 1 hour time slot INCLUDING ad breaks ends up taking almost 90 minutes! It essentially renders the programming unwatchable. Worse is that it is the same set of ads appearing over and over, some of which I find offensive, the rest I have no interest in, but have to sit through this never ending torture if I wish to try to watch something.
This is just pure greed and abuse of viewers.

CW sports broadcast in NC State v WF game tried to honor retiring NC State radio legend Gary Hahn with his calls from the first half. Instead what you all played were not at all Gary Hahns calls and someone else’s voice. Pretty terrible in my opinion and an apology is owed to Hahn and his outstanding work!

They are getting rid of all the iconic old shows that we know and love. How could Legacies not be continued when the story isnt yet over. People have been looking forward to new series of our favorite shows and now these new shows come in that suck and are just trying to play the similar story plot. I want Legacies back!!!

CW=crappy watchlist

They messed with a good thing and now there’s nothing worth watching anymore. Loved the variety of shows over the years and saddened by the loss of some great ones without even the storylines being wrapped up.

too many commercials

Wayyyy toooo
many commercials. I agree that the commercials are not placed in the right places. The newer shows are not that great. Im not sure who is worse, CW or some of the reviewers. This isn't the Christian channel.

I found a few good shows I wanted to watch but just couldn't get passed the commercials of AIDS and showing some acts that got them AIDS to start with. Just not necessary to get a point across.

They broadcast ACC football games that are impossible to watch. No way to stream them. (The only supposedly local channel that is impossible to access.) Antenna, (what decade is this?) won't pick up their signal either.

Frustrating, annoying, not worth the free price tag, that's how bad.

The android based app for home devises is HORRIBLE. It's not worth it, even though it's free! Errors send you back out to watch commercials, the SAME commercials over and over. It's maddening!
Did I mention it's the SAME ads? It's so annoying you will begin to hate the product being advertised. If I hear "Chookies" one more time I'm losing it!
I just got an error code after watching these stupid ads and I just quit. I'm done!
