They have some great shows but it is so frustrating trying to watch on Comcast. Freezes up, kicks you out etc.

Pro tip: switch from WiFi to hardwired Ethernet.

I just dumped Xfinity. They are shit in my area. Constantly down, apps continually freeze and close. Switched to CenturyLink Fiber. Much better so far.

Works fine on Spectrum, however - it has some of the most "woke" offerings on the planet. That Star Trek spinoff "Discovery" was an equity and LGBTQ "tour de force"..
I could only last a few episodes...

I saw the previews for that and decided I'd rather pound my dick flat with a hammer than waste even a second of my life watching it.

I agree, we got the same problem here, and to rewind it is a pain in the neck.

Paramount is running a special for 70 +/- bucks for a years subscription including Show time. If you have a smart TV just down load the app to it and youre good to go...

We have CL here too, but no fiber.

No telling if/when they'll EVER get it here either.
Grrr.

Have had P+ for a while, don't mind paying the $4.95 a month, just got tired of the regurgitated, FBI's, Chicago this and that, NCIS's, and the stupidest sitcoms ('cept maybe Young Sheldon). The real NCIS is lucky to handle one case like those on TV in a year.

I'm really enjoing Stallone in Tulsa King. The Mayor of Kingstown is really good, season 2 has started. 1923 is really starting to get good now, it will be back in Feb.

These shows are all Taylor Sheridan's work, talented story writer, plays the character Travis in Yellowstone.

If you get a moment, peep the movie "Wind River" by Sheridan, lots of actors from the above mentioned shows are in it.
