Wow, Chris! Thank you so much.
I will take a look, immediately. Clearly, your research skills are superior to my own as I spent over 2 hours on this, yesterday and wound up at a dead-end. As I said, I will check into Crackle; and hopefully, there, I will find, "Fantasy Island." I am assuming that if a channel is offered through Apple, it will have some kind of VoiceOver accessibility. I don't want to stray too far off-topic but I am dismayed that with all of this technology, there is not a service that will allow one to truly customize the streaming experience. For example, I am currently subscribed to YouTube TV. While I am relatively happy with the service, I am paying for about 30 or so channels which I will never watch while there are several channels that I want that are not offered on YouTube TV. People talk about going cordless but until we, as consumers, can select only the channels we want in a single subscription package, the cordless experience will never be my first option. Okay, stepping down off of my proverbial soapbox, now (smile).

It also looks like Crackle is on Apple TV. Now other than that, I do not know nothing about Crackle or its accessibility. You might also be able to find it in the ios app store, I do not know. Hopefully this is a good start to you finding what you are looking for! Chris > On Oct 12, 2020, at 6:01 PM, M.
