Recent reviews

They advised that the app is compatible with lg tvs but wouldn’t work with my up to date lg tv. Some of the shows have religious content but there’s killing in the show, seems a bit weird and hypocritical. I couldn’t get the app to take my money so I called it quits with the whole thing. Not a great experience at all.
