Never works

When remote control does work, which is rarely ever, the remote blacks out and the app locks.

Multi view

I wish you could select the channels you want to watch on the multi view screens.

On demand

App should. It take the user to the last season forcing to select the current season being watched. Add a feature that the user can see a summary and the actors in the current episode, like Amazon Video does.
