Channels & viewing

Looks like roku is going to lose a lot of business by taking away all the channels that were there to include basic paramount app.

As noted, Paramount Network is a CABLE network. Roku cannot simply add it or create an app. That is up to Paramount. Also as noted, if you are complaining about Yellowstone, it's the original production company that made the deal with Peacock.

The point is that there WAS a Paramount Network app until recently. I had it myself just a couple weeks ago. So stop saying there hasn't been one.

The Paramount Network app was a TV Everywhere app that required linking with a paid Live TV service (cable, satellite, etc). Paramount shut down and eventually pulled all of them (Nickelodeon, Smithsonian Channel, Paramount Network, and probably more) several months ago.

Hi, Community users.

Thanks for posting here in this thread regarding your concern with the Paramount Network app.

Be advised that the Paramount Network app is no longer available on the Roku platform. This app used to exist on the platform, but it requires a login with your cable or satellite TV provider credentials to access and view its contents.

However, you can add the Paramount+ channel to your Roku device to stream Paramount+ content.

For more information, you can reach out to Paramount+ support and inquire further about this since channels and apps on Roku are directly managed by the channel provider. For reference, reach them at Paramount+ Support.

Feel free to create a new thread if you have further concerns or inquiries. We're here to help.

Best wishes,
Kash

So in my case.  Only paramount will play a series for about five minutes then it kicks you out of every series.  Back to the resume movie menu.  It made me watch ads like 5 times trying to get past to the first scene.  It's only paramount that does this.  I got a new tv and new internet router.  That's when it started the app is up to date the wifi is up to date.  It plays great then it just boots you from the movie.  For no reason.  I deleted the app same thing.  Checked updates same.  Don't know why?

This could be the same ad-block bug that was affecting Paramount+, as I assume they use the same servers. The fact you have a new router makes it the prime suspect. Supposedly, definition updates have been rolling out and people are no longer having problems.
