If I recall correctly, "Showtime Anytime" is a different app than just plain "Showtime." (It's the same situation as "HBO Now" versus "HBO Go," which were two different apps, prior to the creation of HBO Max.) What if you start at the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the Showtime Anytime

I just brought up the Showtime app on the Roku 3 options of packages (sho, sho + mgm+, sho + starz) free trials available before billing begins if logging in with my cable account is an option, they're keeping that hidden (nothing mentioned if I "press * to learn more") On Mon, Jan 30, 2023,

I see, hence your HBO analogy. Still it seems that if you have Showtime (don’t they have some kind of Showtime Now or Go) available thru streaming, that will now also give you access to P+ ? On Mon, 30 Jan 2023 at 4:16 PM Jon Delfin wrote: > On Mon, Jan 30, 2023 at 7:13 PM PGage wrote: > >> I

I think they are saying if you currently pay $9.99 for P+Premium, you will now get everything you had before plus Showtime at no additional cost. That would describe me, so I am happy. But I assume if you currently pay for Showtime (must be at least $9.99) and not P+, you will now get P+ without

So as a current P+ subscriber, I get showtime without having to pay extra for it… and in return the streaming service gets an unnecessarily complicated name like The Los Angeles Angels In Anaheim? I can live with that. On Mon, Jan 30, 2023 at 1:52 PM Jon Delfin wrote: > if I'm reading this
