I usually watch the free episodes of shows and I appreciate being able to do so. Like all the entertainment which is on the app. Today I went to watch The Bold and the Beautiful show and all I'm getting is watch clips. Everything else I can watch full episodes, including The Young and the Restless. But not that other soap. Wondering if there's issues going on???

Phone use your app for sports purposes. That being said it's seems like again and again and again your app makes my home screen even freeze sideways at a certain point when using it and I can't fix it unless I completely restart my phone and it's the only app I have ever had that does that. That seems like a huge issue!

I've used this app for years to keep up with my soap opera and it has always been reliable. Even better if you upgrade to Paramount Plus where there are no limitations on how far back you can go with all the programs. The free version lets you watch up to 5 most recent episodes. The premium version lets you watch all episodes of everything even all the Star Trek episodes and The Twilight Zone and many other older shows. I had Paramount Plus before and will probably upgrade again in the future.
