What I’d really love to know is why I have to reactivate my Roku every time I want to watch Paramount Network. I pay for it, why can’t the stupid app stay registered?
How soon can you watch season 3 on Peacock?
No idea. I just checked my Peacock account and only Season 1 and 2 were on there. I’ll update when I know more.
How much to watch Season Three on Peacock?
Peacock currently only has rights to Season 1 and 2. So you need a live TV service like the ones mentioned above for Season 3.
Philo is only available for USA customers
I tried to watch Yellowstone season one using the Philo app and the entire season wasn’t there. Just a few episodes. What’s up with that? Same thing with season 2
