Showtime

Why is it if you pay for showtime through roku you don't get everything that is on the actual showtime app

    Thanks for the inquiry.

    Did you pay for a subscription for Showtime through The Roku Channel or through the channel provider directly? If you purchased a subscription to Showtime through The Roku Channel, you will only have access through The Roku Channel and not through the channel provider directly. If you are looking to access content through the channel provider directly, we would recommend that you subscribe with them directly.


    Thanks,
    Danny

      I subscribed on one tv through Roku. Went to bedroom to continue watching my Showtime show, and asks me for an activation code, and when I type it in from the bedroom tv, it makes me choose a provider - but I didn't sign up through my provider...so how do I watch it then from another tv in the house?

        Sj1sunshine, are you using a Roku TV or device in the bedroom?  If so, is it linked to the same Roku account as the other TV?  Are you using The Roku Channel?
