Too many ads

I’m only here to watch TP sistas and there are tooooo many add about 5mins worth before the episode really starts then two minutes ads every 5/6 minutes. I grew up watching BET this is so disappointing

Login error

It refuses to let me login. Could this possibly be a bug? As soon as I click login (before inputting any info) it says error. I have deleted the app, redownloaded and swiped out of the app and relaunched it. Could this be looked into?

Too many ads

Ads every 60 seconds or less at the beginning/end of each episode, with additional ads throughout the episode. The ads are off putting and I find myself finding something else to watch on another app. Bet plus app is much better with ads but doesn’t have the full seasons of most shows. Corporate greed at its finest!
