TV series Missing Without A Trace

Recently I went to watch one of my favorite series on the Roku channel to learn it had been removed.  I have tried to reach someone from Roku without any success.  This was a series I watched on a routine basis at least twice a week.  I am very sad that Roku has removed it and put on shows that are of no interest to me.  Please put back Missing Without A Trace.

Thank you

    I’ve had the same issue with Home Town. I'm told it’s available but my searches have come up negative.

    We have the same problem. They need to at least respond to this issue.

    I'm disappointed with Roku also. I have been watching through the episodes of Without A Trace and now they're gone. No notice. Nothing! No concern for Roku viewers. Poor customer service.

      Pay for a vpn called express vpn. About $30 a year.  Get a 16 tb drive then hit a few torrent download sites.  Just search for them on Firefox focus.  You will find all 7 seasons of without a trace and much much more.

      good luck…

      No I just would like that show back on. I am not paying per episode for it.  I pay for Roku. And I should be able to watch anything. But I guess not.  I will just stick with using my Roku for Hulu and all that.

        There is no charge forThe Roku Channel.

        With rare exceptions Roku does not own the content they present on The Roku Channel -- they must license it from the content owners.  Basically, they rent the right to show the content for an agreed upon period of time. When the license runs out they have to pay to renew their license or drop the channel.

        Where I fault Roku is they do a lousy job of warning when those rights are about to run out.

    I literally thought about updating mt smart TV to a roku as I was introduced to roku because it had without a trace and an old show called cold case....I had a citywide power outage and though the issues was I can't remember all my settings and device passwords ...so it was removed 😞 😞 

    I cant afford streaming services right now as I need to have surgery to find out what type of mass I have growing in me...I was hoping to watch it healing and forget about the medical bills (possible cancer for awhile) sighs!
