Stopped Working Almost Immediately

I was able to watch a couple of episodes on this app (with very poor video quality, mind), and now it won't load the episodes at all. My advice: stick with watching in your browser until they can get this thing fixed.

App no longer plays videos and I can't download the lat

The apps layout is very simple and easy to use, and worked great until recently. Now, when I open the app on my Windows tablet... the app opens fine but if I click on any shows, the video window stays black and nothing happens... no error codes no nothing! However, if I use my Galaxy Note 4 I can watch shows in the CW with no trouble. I have seen at least one other review describing this problem. Please fix this problem so I can watch CW shows on my tablet again! Now, on top of the other problems I can't download the latest update...I get an error every time I try.

Can't fullscreen

You cannot watch episodes in full screen in windows 10, if you attempt to hide the windows 10 borders by making it borderless fullscreen you crash. Also, the sound quality isn't very good.

Bugged making you watch commercials over and over

and it makes you watch the same commercials over and over and over. It almost seems like the bugs are intentional to up the views of the commercials. I wish you would flag a commercial stop as "viewed" so when this poorly built app freezes, you don't have to go through 7 commercials to get back to the point in the show where it froze to begin with.

Buggy and it crashes a lot

Glad they offer this for windows 10 (I'm on MS Surface) I love being able to watch my favorite shows and don't mind the commercials.... except the video freezes and then the app crashes. As another user noted, the commercials play back with no issue (which is almost more annoying). The phone app is good though (for iPhone).

doesn't work

The actual app opens fine. Problem is that when I click on a link to a video, nothing plays. I've tried several different series, full episodes and clips, it's all the same. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app and the same thing, no video. Uninstalling now

don't close it!!!

Every commercial break is replayed just to get back to the point of resume. It is certain that this app was not designed with forethought and user enjoyment taken into consideration. Gives me more appreciation for the Hulu app. I am sure the Ad sponsors LOVE it! Back to the drawing board, please!

Love the app, but...

Would it be possible to let the app play in the background when in fullscreen mode? How about an option to choose resolution? Really hate that it defaults to a blurred level of resolution even though I pay for High speed internet.

needs more episodes..

you would think that this app would have all the episodes from all the seasons but it only has about 5 episodes of each show... it would be a lot better if you could watch all the episodes of every season of every show on the app..

Glitchy

Great shows but I can't get through an episode. It keeps freezing every few seconds and I keep getting kicked out of the app. Please fix!!
