There's a lot to choose from

Everything but the local news channel I want to watch. just garbage reality shows

Sc*****, 2026-05-07

The constant ads that make you wait through almost two minutes of commercials every five seconds are very annoying. I can't even start a show without having to see pointless ads i'm forced to watch! definitely turns me off immediately. Especially when it's cheap (download this game on your phone now) type of adds with no skipping available literally no way to skip them. I'd pay more just to get rid of over pushed ads. It's the worst thing, and it has perturbed me. I will be deleting this app.
