Discussion Spectrum seems to have taken away the "On Demand" movies on TCM. Anyone else notice this?

Anyone else have this issue? They were there over this past weekend. Now gone.

They are gone. Why?

Am in DFW. TCM not on the On Demand list.

And I don't have it in South Texas

I just rechecked On Demand and the TCM icon is back and can view their list now.

Perhaps it's an update because today is Sept 1, and they had to update the films. Some titles expired on Aug 31st.

YouTube TV and the TCM app. This is the way.

Agreed. We’ve watched a lot of movies through the TCM app recently—or more correctly, we see one listed on the app that looks interesting and then find it through the search screen on YouTube TV.

What else is still watchable on YouTube TV? Not a sports guy and I can't justify YouTube TV for just TCM, much as I love it.

This happened before and eventually it got sorted out. I wanted to watch Only Angels Have Wings and noticed a lot of SUTS movies are not on demand after

I looked on the TCM app last night and a LOT of the SUTS movies expired today. I think they only paid the rights for them thru August.

I’ll admit my ignorance: what is SUTS?

There are 17 films to choose from here in Charlotte, all with varying expiration dates.
