I am having the exact same issue with my Samsung TV. I subscribe to this old house, however, I am unable to watch season one on the Roku app on my Samsung TV. I can watch it on the Roku channel using my Roku TV, but want to be able to watch it also on my Samsung TV. I do not understand why there is an issue. Please let me know what is being done to resolve this.
