Summary of The CW Problems 😠👌🔥

- The app only supports portrait orientation, with the home button at the bottom.

- Constant buffering brings me back to my 2002 dial up internet days.

- The commercials are significantly louder than the show.

- If I try to leave the volume at a happy medium so the commercials are more bearable, I can barely hear the dialogue of the actual show.

The app is cutting the ending of shows short. We were 36 mins into an episode that was 55 mins long. It popped up that the next episode was starting in 5 seconds. This is not the first time it has done this. The show is Beauty and the Beast. Why is it doing this????

Using roku on a TV using a fast wireless network. CW application plays then crashes randomly with the lame "OOPS" message. This activity started about 2 weeks ago. It's getting very upsetting. It's sad that roku takes longer to start than an old TUBE TV, then toss the application on top of that and we could mow an acre of yard with a push mower, before it starts up.

It says error when I try to watch anything on the website with my laptop. I've previously had no issues. I can open all tabs on the website, but am not able to watch any shows, even the ones I watched previously.

It says error when I try to watch anything on the app but I can click all the different tabs search for individual shows everything is working perfectly but the ability to actually watch a show. If they're wondering why they have to cancel so many shows it's because your app stinks and it's not usable so of course you don't have any ratings.
