Doc series 2001 Seasons 4 - 5 not available

Until recently Roku TV listed all 5 seasons of the 2001+ series 'Doc', w/Billy Ray Cyrus. About a week ago, maybe right around July 1, only seasons 1-3 are available. We were around end of season 4 or early season 5 and now can't finish the rest of the episodes. 
Does anyone know if Roku is going to 'fix' this?
Now on Roku it references Up Faith and Family. I have subscription there, and it only has 3 seasons. It was our search for seasons 4 and 5 that led me to Roku to see all 88 episodes.

    Hello, FredBassette​

    Thanks for sharing your issue with the Doc 2001 TV series, which you can watch in Seasons 4 and 5 on the Up Faith and Family app. We're here to provide you with information about this show.

    After reviewing our Roku streaming store website, we found that seasons 4 and 5 of the Doc 2001 TV series are not accessible on the Up Faith and Family app. However, these seasons are available for free on Tubi and can be accessed on Philo and Frndly TV, which require a subscription.

    Hope this helps.

    I agree with all of these posts about "Doc" season 4 and 5. It was available and then it wasn't available. We can't find it on any of these suggested places!!! Bring it back please!

    Thanks for agreeing that seasons 4 and 5 aren't on UpFF. 
    I too found info that those seasons are on Tubi. Went to Tubi and couldn't find 'Doc', after a few different searches.
    I have had a Frndly subscription, but only for one show (When Calls the Heart), so only pay for it when a new season comes there. Will try that if I can't find on Tubi.

    Still wondering why those seasons 'disappeared' on Roku?

      spent some time looking around Tupi ... can't find Doc at all
      signed into my Frndly account ... they have seasons 2 and 4 (odd not 1, 3)
      but not 5

      Could be a licensing issue.  Licenses expire for the content and may change what channels stream them depending on who acquires the license.  Channels also rotate content every few months as well and they were just rotated out for a period of time.

    yeah, that's logical.
    What doesn't seem logical/customer friendly is when Roku stopped included seasons 4 and 5, after offering them for at least the last month or so that we've been finishing up the series .. when I know that at least one customer (me!) has been watching season 5 lately.
    Would seem to make more sense to drop early seasons than late?
    I would hope Roku analyzes what's being watched and makes business decisions on what to keep showing (paying license fees for).
