Watching shows and films81%
I watched the first three scream movies on here. When I went to watch scream 4 they only had the trailer on here. Why are we able to watch the first scream movies but not the rest? That is ridiculous!
Live events18%
What is the live schedule? What NFL game is on? I don't see my local CBS station listed, either. I get a live local station at home. I'm not traveling, I'm just down the street. Can't stream the game.
Family and kids1%
I dont own a TV because I have no interest in it but when my 2 yo grandson comes over this is our go-to for his shows. His favorite is Blaze. Thanks Paramount! 🙋🏼‍♀️👶🏼💯
