Paramount Plus/Showtime App Error During Playback of The Curse

Paramount Plus won't load Showtime show The Curse. Says error during play back while loading episode and then kicks you out with error that says Content unavailable or error during playback. Had so many issues with Roku lately. I think I'm done with your product

      Did that already. Didn't work. And actually the last update appears to have caused the issue

      Did the update - no change. Some programs give an error and won't play.

      I gave up and just started using the paramount plus app through a Chromecast. Good luck with your crummy product. 

  • Same problem here. It seems like all the CBS programs play fine but the Paramount Plus originals wont play and give the error has occured. I finally had someone at Paramount tell me I was not the only one with this problem.
