Exact same thing! Walking Dead Universe (English!) on the Roku app is one of my main go-to channels and I am so frustrated after a month of FTWD to finally get back to TWD to have this happen. Is there anyone at Roku that will actually fix this??
- B_W1Reel Rookie
I'm not exactly a developer yet but it seems to be an interference from elsewhere. Maybe hacked. Since the commercials and all other English speaking shows aren't doing it, it seems more likely than not. I hope someone is working on this, like as we speak.

S3 E13 was in english this morning, I thought great... then S3 E14 started off & its in Spanish! 🤬.. nosotrose ondelay no espanol !
How hard is it to understand roku? The show is in spanish voice over, nothing we can do or did. Show a video? what it's in fn spanish! It's on the Roku channels end. Get it together, someone or we'll go elsewhere to watch I guess.

S4: E9 is in English

I did a comment below that I was having the same issues. As of today, still not fixed. It's extremely frustrating when you turn to an English speaking channel to have some episodes in Spanish with no option to translate it to English. I love The Walking Dead series, and knew I had to figure out some kind of answer. I'll probably get booted for this comment, but Roku is not the only app that has Walking Dead Universe. Both Plex and Pluto also have the station - in English! (There's probably more, but those are the two apps that I've been watching this week.) They are about a season behind what Roku is showing, but at least it's consistently in English. So since Roku doesn't seem to want to fix the Spanish speaking episodes issue, then we can always use other apps. I am.

This is an ongoing problem on 741. My TV stays on this channel about 75 percent of the time, even if for background noise, so, yes, I DO know when Spanish is the only audio. This time, it's been in Spanish for 2 days. Not commercials, just the show. Last times was 5 days ago, etc. Was hoping I could rewatch in English from S1Ep1 because the broadcast premiere of The Ones Who Live is Sun the 25th,
BUT
LOOKS LIKE ROKU IS RUINING IT FOR US YET AGAIN 😔
FIX IT PPL OR WE WILL GO ELSEWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Season 4 Episode 5
Finally channel 741 in English again.. now will it switch back to Spanish in the next episode? we'll just have to wait an hour to see 🙄
- JeremRChannel Surfer
Same problem! Dang it, thought I was watching Twd tonight.. S2e5 was english, now S2e6 is in spanish - no!! Why! A week or 2 ago a whole Ftwd, all seasons played in spanish, then went back to english since then, but this time it switched in between episodes so I'm now I'm cut off from what happens next.
- Philymac55Newbie
Same!!! S2 E6 is now Spanish. It was strange. S2 E4 started in Spanish. After about 5 minutes it changed back to English. All the commercials are in English. Getting tired of it. May have to cancel Roku!!!

Couple episodes later it's back in english & zombie

How come the Roku people aren't giving us an answer? This is crazy.

I visited the “help center” on this site and reached a rep via chat. Perhaps more of you can do the same. Even though I was informed that the issue is being escalated to the powers that be, it can’t hurt to have more people file a complaint and have the issue escalated a few more times. Thanks guys!
- pleasehelpnowNewbie
Trying to find the help for this issue. Can't find the chat or message them or get any help at all! Can't figure it out yet but very frustrated Roku won't get it fixed!
- CatcarsonNewbie
I second this. There isn't a way to switch it back to english

I just check it out here online:
https://therokuchannel.roku.com/watch/be88a28806f251338d65ec08119f5c81/the-walking-dead-universe
It was in English. Spanish was not ever an option.
Also checked it on The roku channel on my roku. Also in English.
So, I don't know why you are seeing Spanish.
- BrendajjNewbie
Online it is speaking Spanish too. Please fix this
- Hunter9490Reel Rookie
I just clicked that link on my PC and it is also in Spanish
- toddarBinge Watcher
Same here 741 in spanish started yesterday. Interspersed with all english episodes, but mostly spanish episodes. Right now S4E7 in english. Last one was spanish next one will probably be spanish too.
Roku stick restarted no help. We want english.
- B_W1Reel Rookie
I woke up to Spanish.. checked all the same things and everything points to English yet it's in Spanish.
Not only that, but it's only amc the walking dead universe channel 741. What's up? Anyone figured out a fix for this?
- TriaWillowBinge Watcher
Hopefully it'll be in all English again in about 12 hours once it gets into season 3 a good bit. And Hopefully Roku you will have this fixed before TWD starts over again. My two years in Spanish in HS didn't prepare me for this😂 help!
- NolaStarrChannel Surfer
RIGHT! This is so very frustrating! We get teased with an episode in English sprinkled in the line-up, but then the next 7 are back to Spanish. If I’m not wrong, I think there is a Spanish version of this Channel as well. If so, I’m sure they’re not dealing with 8o% of their programming switching to English! Can someone address the issue & rectify it ASAP!?! I just canceled my AMC+ subscription 🙂 Not. to mention that it should be in English for Pizza Sake!
- NolaStarrChannel Surfer
I was right Channel 1003 is the “Spanish Channel”. Well, I guess now there are 2 Spanish channels for the Walking Dead Universe!
- canoesnip1Newbie
We are so frustrated about this as well!! We enjoy watching TWD, but several times ove the last week, when we've turned it on, it's in Spanish. Since this is an English speaking channel, (and our settings have, "English" as the language for watching), we don't understand why it keeps coming on in Spanish. Isn't there a specific subscription for Spanish? Why would you put it in Spanish? Please fix this!
- JeremRChannel Surfer
Just watched S4 E5 in english & now E6 is back in Spanish! 🤬 ... heads need to roll 🤣

I think contacting the help center actually helped! I just went to check the channel not thinking they’d be able to rectify so very quickly, but perhaps they could. The episode that is on right now was in Spanish a minute or so ago & now it’s in English. I guess I’ll know for sure when the next episode comes on. Well, I’m gonna go capitalize on the situation and watch some WD & actually understand what they’re saying 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I guess I’ll know for sure when the next episode begins! Hopefully the English sticks!!!
- NolaStarrChannel Surfer
Maybe NOT… Back to Spanish! This is ridiculous!!! Where can I “press 1” (for English, press 1)? Also, Darryl’s Dpanish voice doesn’t not suit him at all. Most of them don’t, but his is sooo out there!
