That's because they only offer limited episodes from Premium channels.

For me the issue is that sometimes you have to look really hard to know what is free, what is pre-view, and what is pay.

Wish there was a setting or have premium on a separate channel.  There are too many Premium channels on top of the Roku channel main screen.

@kathysimmons191, try disconnecting your Roku device from the TV for a few seconds and then reconnect it.  If that doesn't work, try using a different HDMI cable (assuming you don't have a stick that plugs directly into the TV without the need for a cable) or a different HDMI input on your TV.  If still no luck, try unplugging the power from both your TV and your Roku device for a minute or so and then plug everything back in.
