Where's season 6 of Showtime's Shameless?!

 I recently switched from Comcast to U-verse and can only see seasons 1-5 On Demand (TV and uverse.com.) Thinking there was some sort of glitch in my set-up I reported the issue, but was given the theory that the content wasn't released yet to On-Demand. First of all I hate when people give me theories and don't do the proper root cause analysis. Secondly it doesn't make sense that a season the premiered on January 10, 2016 and concluded April 3, 2016 doesn't have some episodes On Demand. Of course the product support people tried telling me it was "probably" due to the original network not releasing it, but that doesn't make sense since Comcast On Demand had all the episodes for all the seasons. Season 6 is the latest. 

 

Game of Thrones, another fantastic show I watch, has each episode being released to On Demand as soon as it airs, just like it does with Comcast. How are you to know as a customer what shows are being released to On Demand and in what time?

 

I'm starting to have buyers remorse. 😞

Hi @bingwatchercw,

 

We apologize about the issues. We are constantly working towards improving our content, but licensing rights do keep certain shows from appearing on our demand. With your subscription to Showtime from us, you do get Showtime Anytime. You should be able to find the latest episodes from their site.

 I agree,

 

The " On Demand " section for U-verse is getting to be pathetic!  Regardless of what you're looking for.  If you want to shake your head in dismay, look at Starz OD.

 

When trying to access Showtime Anytime on-line as a U-verse customer, Season 6 of Shameless doesn't even show up, and Season 7 is sched to start this Oct.

 

You can be sure that Uverse will point the finger at Showtime instead of giving an honest answer.

 

It's just a loop of no answers!

No longer available on Verizon FIOS either or Amazon Prime; must be some strange issue going on - I had been watching up to ep. 4. Google search left me here searching for answers. Maybe Gallagher related problem...

Showtime anytime ends with season 5, so it makes no sense that season 7 will be starting in 3 months, but I don't have access to anentire season between.

NEED HELP?
