When Roku licenses something for TRC, it's always time limited. Sometimes they don't even get access to every season, or even every episode. But when their contract ends to provide the content, it's removed from TRC.
This is one area that Roku could greatly improve their service, by maintaining a list of titles with their time out dates. Netflix makes such info available (although not always easy to find), but I can't find Roku listing that information anywhere. In fairness, I never seen such info available on Prime Video either. I've had titles that I've watched for free with my Prime account, and if I wanted to watch it again it's now pay per view or purchase. It's removed from Prime availability without notice. I don't subscribe to any other service, so I can't say if anyone but Netflix offers that info.
In a similar fashion, Netflix used to provide content from The Walt Disney Company back during the 2010s. Netflix’s deal with Disney ended around 2019, and that was when Disney’s own service, Disney + was created.

I’m into videotapes and old electronics stuff, including extenders, converters and analog 4:3 TV sets (which are obsolete these days), and Miss Bianca is my favorite character in Disney’s The Rescuers (1977) and its sequel, The Rescuers Down Under (1990). I am not a Roku employee, only a user like you. ~ Jordan
