Benson show has disappeared on The Roku Channel

I was in the middle of Binge Watching Benson and was really enjoying it and it went away yesterday. 

Why do shows have to come and go?
How do I know how long I have to Binge Watch an older series that I misses some when it aired decades ago?
I don't want to get into the middle of another show and have that go away again before I finish it.

    Hey everyone!

    Just a heads up— due to the licensing agreement, the show has officially been removed from The Roku Channel. You might want to check out some other shows to binge-watch while you're there!

    Thanks for being part of the Roku Streaming Community!

    Let us know if you need help.

    Benson has been like my comfort show for the past 6 months. When there were a bunch of episodes missing I even complained on here and got them to fix it and return all 20 of the episodes to the app. I hope they fix it! Thanks for doing this btw.

        My wife and I take our BP readings at 1030 PM every night and I like to watch a few episodes before to relax me. I started with 2 Broke Girls and then started Benson. That is a funny show but only got to season 3.

    Same here.  Watch it almost every night over and over.   My husband loves the show and watches it all the time too.  Bring it back.  Who cares if some episodes are missing.  Had to be only a few as we didn't notice and still enjoyed what was there.  So bring it back please please.

      YES! I have been watching it over and over and over! I enjoy watching shows from my childhood and this was one that has been on constant play and now BOOM, just gone! UGH! I hope they bring it back ASAP!

      Yes, I noticed that on Monday 4/14 that it was Back.... That is so great. And it remembered what episode I was on. I am trying to watch 2-3 episodes a day to try and finish it before it's removed again.
