I finally tried to watch a video. Sat through 5 ads upfront and noticed there would be several more forced ad breaks. Ok, I get it but not thrilled. Video started playing and the status bar at top of screen would not fade away as usual when watching videos. I clicked on the Full Screen arrow, hoping it may resolve the issue. Nope. It closed the video and when I tried to watch it again, I was going to have watch the same 5 ads again.I’m afraid to find out what happens if I stop watching a video and come back to it-the app doesn’t seem to save your time in content.Too bad, War Game looked interesting. Let me know if you guys get this sorted out, I like the idea of the app and there are a couple things I would watch.

**Update: TKU to TheNetwork Developer, for quick response & assistance re resetting my password. I recvd email w/reset directions & have successfully secured new password, & began watching The Green Veil via our AppleTV. Very plsd w/wuality of viewing & appreciate great responsiveness of Developer/TechSupport. I will look fw to seeing what other programs become available on this network. TKU again! Excited to try this new network that I heard abt via tv program The View—downloaded app, set up my account, was able to see the 2 programs currently streaming; however, when I logged off & tried to log back in, recvd an error mssg. Tried to reset password numerous times, but have yet to recv an email w/further directions. When I try to create a new acct, my email is recognized as alrdy in use. Not sure why password reset email hasn’t been delivered to me. (I have checked both junk & rubbish folders—no emails recvd yet.) Hoping that tech support can help me reset my password.

I heard about this on some talkshows. The Green Veil is great so far.As far as the app, I was able to use subtitles on one episode and then when the next episode came up, there were no subtitle options. Like other platforms, you should be able to set that you want and you have to reset the timeOthers have said, I’m anxious to see what they come out with but so far I’m enjoying this program.

So Mandy Patinkin plugged The Network on Stephen Colbert last night. I had never heard of the streaming service before and downloaded the app. I saw that the free version was commercial supported. That’s fine so is the base version of Peacock. But the Peacock app actually works properly, especially when it comes to dealing with blocks of ads. Before committing to see The Artist I figured I’d watch something in free mode that was 90 minutes long. With all the frustrating hoops I had to jump through I eventually ended up watching at least 45 minutes of ads for a 90 minute program. are the programmers of the app just that inept, or am I being scammed to sign up for the pay service? Either way I’m trashing this app. I’d never heard of The Network before this, and I never want to hear of it again!
