Get with it Roku. We were watching a movie as a family with my kids ranging from 3-11 years old. An ad came on for a horror movie and I couldn’t turn it off fast enough. This resulted in 2 of my children terrified and unable to sleep that night. With the technology we have today, you should be able to share are appropriate ads based on the movie or show of choice. Make it stop!

This happened to me too!! We were watching free live tv classic Murder she wrote episodes (silly 90s-2000s mystery show with no violence), and I keep getting this awful ad for the Until Dawn movie trailer, it’s sick and demented and ruining our experience, yuck turn off these horror movie ads. It disturbs children and it’s not ok.
We were watching a pg movie Roku channel when an ad for a horror movie came on with my young children watching. I couldn’t get to the remote quickly enough before they saw a scary image that kept them from peaceful sleep for weeks. Ads shown during movies should reflect the same genre and age rating.
