No bering sea series 15
December 20, 2022

Disco+ does not perform like Netflix. It pretends there is no Internet connection when every other device on the house works. In addition, if you want it for gold rush type programmes, it is not showing series 15 of bering sea. Apparently it is due to acquisition rights. As soon as an alternate provider carries bering sea series 15, I'm out.

Just play shows
June 12, 2020

Stop trying to be political, I am tiered of all of this black lives matter, all lives matter that includes black lives. Get Oprah off of your channel all you are doing is adding fuel to a protest that should not even be going on now. I know more black people that are racist than white. I will probably not watch any more of your channels. Sorry to say that because I do enjoy most of them but I can't tolerate supporting made up issues. I know I am just one person and you really don't care about what I think but I'm tiered of staying quiet and not expressing my feelings.

I purchase Discovery + to get TLC for 90 Day Fiancé. They will not upload the current tell all for Happily every after. Why pay for this service when current episodes are withheld

I got a gift trial and sent it for 30 days and Discovery plus will not honor it they pointed it back at me saying that I used the wrong plastic card, which is not true and now when I try to sign in with another card they say they will not accept the promo code. Horrible company and I do not plan to do any business with them in the future.

Homosexuality
June 21, 2022

I am appalled at your blatant support of the homosexuality community and your efforts to support "pride". I'm am not a homophobe (I have many male friends!) nor do I hate homosexuals... only their aberrant and immoral lifestyle. If they choose to live that way... that's their choice. But do not presuppose that the majority of your viewers support this lifestyle or appreciate you shoving it in our faces. The homosexuality community is not interested in my stance on moral issues nor am I interested in having their lifestyle, morals and community repeatedly pushed on me. Please reconsider your ways before it's too late.

For a Space enthusiast, Discovery Science has been a blessing. With the rate at which new discoveries are evolving, the daily diet of the programme is just about adequate. Thnnarrator Morgan Freeman was outstanding. However he has been missing and his substitute is not a patch on him. Some of the scientists like Hakim are too dramatic.

Feeling Ripped Off!
March 28, 2021

I'm a DirecTV subscriber and ever since this Discovery plus came out all my fav. Shows have been pulled from regular programming and put on D+. Like Ghost Adventures, Mountain Monsters, Portals To Hell and so on. You up your price for the umbrella of channels to my satellite provider which they pass on the price to me and then you pull my favorite shows from your programming. Why not keep your streaming service and whoever wants to pay for it pays for it. But still show the programming on regular satellite and cable TV like it used to be and everybody wins.

Come on people
July 3, 2022

Who is running things over at the DiscoveryPlus App? So they have the same things to watch and once you're done watching them, then you watch them again. Sometimes they have a few shows that are new and sometimes they have a few new episodes from certain shows. But every week when the new episodes should be listed, half the time they are not. I do like a few shows on this app and i pay every month for them. So when I wait every week to watch them i expect a new episode, when they say, "new episodes every Thursday". They need new shows and also should do what they say they do.

Joe Kenda
November 25, 2021

I enjoy watching the crime stories on the Discovery Channel. What I mostly like is the stories from Joe Kenda. What I don't enjoy is constantly hearing on how great he is. He thinks way to much of himself ( arrogant self centered). He puts his pants on just like anyone else. Also, I don't need to hear about his family life. Especially his wife and how she was such a great person putting up with his job. If I need to hear about people's family life I can turn on a soap opera. In other words I like the stories but I can't stand Joe Kenda and his family.
Thanks

We were unsatisfied with Discovery Plus and tried to cancel. Spent over an hour on the phone with customer service. They were no help at all. They finally told us we would have to contact our credit card company to cancel. This cost us time and money.THIS SERVICE IS A SCAM!

It's frustrating
July 10, 2023

I like the content, and that's about all. I watch mainly using my roku. It is the most frustrating paid app I use! There are a lot of ads and they are repetitive. The most annoying issue I have with this app is its inability to correctly save where I left off on a show. When I go to the continue watching section the shows are there but they are not where I left off, most of the time it's not even the same episode that I left on. Then I have to scroll/rewind/fastforward to try and actually find where I left off.

We enjoy watching several of thee remodeling channels. BUT lately we have stopped watching and I'm even considering canceling because those commercials are repetitious especially the one from fixer to fabulous and the kids cooking. I've learned them by memory and they repeat them two or three times every 20 minutes and that is not an exaggeration.
I'm not interested in paying for being forced to watch repetitive commercials because of someone's lack of creativity or simply negligence.

The Repair Shop
April 11, 2022

Some months ago I happened upon a show I had never seen. I have watched about 20 episodes and hope to see every one that they made. It is an English show about a group of repair artisans that accomplish the most amazing transformations of wonderful old, broken things that have fabulous and meaningful memories. If Discovery would let the audience know about the show I believe it would have a very large following. It has been running at 4:30 4 or 5 days a week for a few weeks. Now it has disappeared. This is a great, uplifting show that needs to be shown often. It's called The Repair Shop

Way to many commercials!
November 30, 2021

How many more commercials can you possibly cram in a street outlaws episode. I'm considering to stop giving you my ratings on Monday night. I'll give them to Monday night football. The amount of commercial time is ridiculous compared to actual program time. So unacceptable

Disappointed
August 2, 2020

I like a lot of shows on Animal Planet & Discovery, but am disgusted with the advertisements being far left! Have yet to see any other political advertisements except Biden. What happened to all competitors being given the same treatment when it comes to advertisements?
I am going to stop watching your networks until I hear you stop being so bias!

Discovery failed me and us as watchers. My main show is Deadliest catch and to find out about josh harris OMG. I'm a victim myself I was raped at the age of 3 yrs old and ik what I went thru and dealt with fought those demons I'm still fighting. I started watching Deadliest Catch when it cam out 2006. Josh Harris Phil harris jake harris were my main fans. Discovery negligence on doing background checks on these people allowed fans to love and care for a child rapist. Discovery and travel u disgusts me.

What makes television personnel think that all that loud and unnecessary backoground noise makes programming more interesting. I am very interested in the programming, but cannot tolerate the loud banging, music, and other noises. I can't even hear what is being said. Discovery Channel you are losing a devoted watcher. You need to change your presentation because I know you are rapidly losing viewers. Just had a thought. I would think any scientist, woodsman expert, etc. would detest the stupid booms and other distracting sounds. They need to complain to programming.

I'm sick of discovery plus! The show are great but there's always a lagging issue or it kicks me off and it happened so much I never get to watch anything so I sure don't want to be paying for something I can't use. Ever since day 1 I've had issues and I finally canceled my subscription. I don't mind paying for something if it's worth it.

I pay for cable with Discovery and HGTV already, but in order to watch all the shows I like on those channels I have to pay $4.99 a month for Discovery plus, and now they have adds every few mins! I'm going to cancel my subscription! Super disrespectful for their customers
