Lifetime: TV Shows & Movies

They’ve made Lifetime the only place you can watch MAFS and it’s almost impossible to watch it. The player itself is buggy. The play and skip buttons stay on the screen unless you tap it the right number of times. Skipping ahead or back is stupid because it takes it a few seconds to actually skip after you hit the button and then the audio doesn’t align right away with the video. If you want to go back a full minute or two, it takes forever. The ads are also buggy. Sometimes it gives you a choice: 30 seconds of an ad you interact with, or two minutes of an ad you don’t interact with. If you pick the 30 second one and interact with it, after you click “go back to video” it will give you another 30 seconds of black screen plus another ad before you can go back to the video. If you click two minutes, sometimes it will give you a black screen, sometimes it’ll play a couple of ads, sometimes it’ll play a full 5 minutes of ads (four ads, with just one individual one being 2 minutes). The ads are all the same and it’s like they’re specifically selected to be the worst ones. The miniplayer will often go black after an ad plays and you have to re-open the app to start it again. The hundreds of episodes are all in a long list rather than divided by season. Selecting a season just takes you to a place on the list. The episodes are also numbered improperly at times. With some effort, I get to watch my show. That’s the only good thing I can say about it. Wish they’d put it back on Prime.
