Exit to live

Please make that go away, just want to turn the tv on and watch it. Also the app keeps getting blurry picture. I don’t have that issue with any other app, so it’s not my internet connection or speed causing the issue.

Regardless of being entertained

Spectrum is pretending to be generous. They are devils when it comes to long time customers. They raise your bill because they’re greedy. GREEDY!!!
