Channels & viewing

[AS3120]

For some reason, my account shows that all episodes of “House MD” except Season 2- episode 18 are currently unavailable. This was not an issue yesterday when I finished watching season 2 episode 18, so I assume there is some glitch but I don’t know how to fix it. Could anyone please help me resolve this issue; I want to get back to binge watching.

The content on the free channels/apps (like the Roku Channel) will come and go as the content license expires.

Being the beginning of the month, it is likely that the license has expired. (I am only seeing S2, ep. 18 showing available as well).

I am also not seeing it anywhere available for free except for subscription services like Hulu, Prime Video, Peacock, etc.

Oh ok…. So just unfortunate timing to start watching on my part.. Thank you though!

Renew the content license for House!

Some of us are seniors barley surviving on Social Security so do not suggest us paying costly subscription prices too see something we enjoy. That's why we used to watch over the air TV for free, but since the government messed with that and made everything digital we can't even enjoy that for free. It seems like all the programs are now backed by greed!

Have you tried connecting an antenna (even the old rabbit ears) to your TV to pick up your locals and OTA?

Only mention it because very often people don't realize that their television (manuf. 2008 and on or so) can once again use an antenna without any special seperate digital decoding boxes. (I remember when those boxes were running $50 or so or you could apply for a rebate -- what a time).
