I just got this message too. I could not re-install Comet. This is the main app I stream in Roku. If this is Roku’s choice… I will not buy another Roku tv (and I had planned on doing just that). This is a BIG mistake by Roku.

It used to be on Stirr tv and it changed owners and disappeared. That's why I bought

a Roku stick. You can still watch on your pc. What a joke

Same here, everyday for the last couple years. Total BS. I see HULU has Xflies and Buffy, and perhaps they forced Comet to remove the app. We deserved a warning at least, and certainly some answers.

I agree… Hey Roku… why did you drop Comet… one of your best apps?

You owe us an explanation… better yet, correct your mistake and return the app. Your decision is not winning you customers. How about giving us an email where we can address our grievance.

Good call, but I suspect COMET TV made the choice. Probably sold out to pressure from HULU, which streams X-files and Buffy (I see now). Regardless, always comes down to $.

This was not a Roku decision. Comet TV owner Sinclair has removed it.

Hi, Community users!

Thanks for reaching out here in the Roku Community.

In addition to what our Community Guru provided above, the app Comet TV is no longer being offered on the Roku streaming platform. 

If you want this available on the Roku streaming platform, we highly recommend contacting the channel provider and letting them know you'd like their app back. 

For more information, read about Why is an app no longer available on my Roku streaming device? | Official Roku Support

For future announcements, you may visit the Roku Blog. 

Warm regards,
Carly

It has disappeared again. The PC/tablet version is working, but the Roku app is NOT.

Sinclair Broadcasting, which owns Comet TV, has pulled it from Roku devices. Not at all under the control of Roku themselves.

Thanks for the info. It was a Comet decision then, not Roku.
