Re: Block certain commercials

We were not watching an R rated show. We just saw this commercial last night and we were on the Roku channel, watching a Jack Hanna wildlife show, which was definitely geared towards kids (kind of like a discovery show type of flavor.) It was a highly inappropriate commercial for the channel we were viewing.

Re: Block certain commercials

If you haven't noticed you're the only one here that thinks this is ok. You my friend are wrong and so is this content. Nobody here agrees with you. You're just a mouth flapping your gums and nothing else at this point.

Re: Block certain commercials

@Tdawgdad  Please explain how that video offends you? Is it pornographic? No. Is the person doing drugs? No. You do realize that this issue is all yours and has absolutely nothing to do with Roku. if the commercial offend you that much then talk to Fitbit and have them remove it. No one in here is going to care that a Fitbit commercial is offensive to you

Report away. Try not to always be the antagonist in life.

Re: Block certain commercials

@Tdawgdad  The Fitbit commercials you are whining about just aired live on national TV. I am watching Chicago Fire on NBC through YouTube TV on my laptop. I just saw the commercial. So I guess NBC does not have an issue with it. What’s my point? It has absolutely nothing to do with Roku. Have a nice day

I'm so happy that I'm on your mind so much that you're thinking of me as you watch your television shows.

@Tdawgdad @LetKidsBeKids @Wldrnss77  I am trying to make you realize that’s this has “zero” to do with Roku. But it has everything to do with your personal beliefs.

Re: Block certain commercials

I didn't realize you were so familiar with the inner workings of Roku and how they operate their business in the advertising department. You must work there or something to know how they select their sponsors. Again your pearls of wisdom and non-solution are so very appreciated by nobody.

Re: Block certain commercials

@Tdawgdad  There is no solution for your personal beliefs. If the commercial offends you then email Fitbit. But so far it’s aired on NBC, CBS and Fox. It has 5 million views on YouTube. So obviously millions of people don’t find anything wrong with it and multi million dollar corporations are airing it live on national TV. But somehow you think it’s Rokus problem to block this commercial. Which it is not.
