    Default Roku follow up

    Got the roku ultra... very nice, no lag, tons of choices. Almost ready to ditch cable tv. Although i can get local news etc, need to try a few tricks to stream real time.

    Yes, found at least 2 channels that provide access to the walking dead without paying, so all is good

    will be replacing one of my other tvs with a built in roku version

    I'm gonna need some details on that Walking Dead part!

    (perhaps the "Ultra" has something to do with it)

    I'll look. I hadn't seen it in the past on either of those.
    I don't watch them much because they seem to only air "one season" of a show and just replay the same episodes over and over again.

    If you’re going to look into YouTube tv skip the Rokus. They’re in a pissing contest.

    We've been using various kinds of Roku boxes the last few years, they work really well and have a good selection of channels. The wifi ones are really convenient but I've noticed have issues on 5g wifi, so something to watch for.

    i was thinking about youtubetv until i saw like $65 a month... i can still watch anything on youtube that i want to but it seems like the local stuff is 99% of the reason people use it.

    I hope to rectify that situation soon
