Old videos
When you say that a video will be available until certain date, I wish you would replace it at that date/time. I get tired of seeing the same thing over and over.

Verified ReviewerTo complain about editing of The Godfather
I have an issue with something that happened with a Showtime movie. I tried to call to report same and first phone number refers you to Paramount email.
The second phone number sent me to some Pissed Consumer thing which never sent the code for me to register. All in all I would say my experience rates Showtime a minus 1.
Do not edit films. You butchered The Godfather with the sloppiest editing I have ever seen. We want our films whole, uncut, unedited.
User's recommendation: If this horrible editing continues cancel your subscription

Billing situation
I just Showtime and have been charged for it. I went to watch something that is only available on Showtime.
I was denied access and charged an additional fee to watch this show i wanted to watch. I want to watch Nurse Jackie. This is only available on Showtime. Hence the reason I purchased it for 12.00 a month or 144.00 a year.
Only to be to told its not available. Why is this?
They took my money very quickly? I want to watch Nurse Jackie Please.
