The commercials
September 15, 2021

That commercial for that birth control is tacky and disgusting! It plays over and over, every time a commercial comes on it's that terrible one! Please remove it. It's disrespectful to the youth and disturbing to hear. People don't wanna hear " Welcome to my Virgina"! I don't wanna be welcomed there! Please and thank you, especially every 10 minutes!

Terrible app
May 18, 2023

I tried to watch a couple of different movies on this app. Each time It would start the movie get about 10 minutes into the film and then would get stuck in commercial mode rerunning the commercials over and over again. Pluto needs to be removed from existence. I tried several different film titles thinking it may be a glitch in one of the movies. But each title I chose... Same result. I uninstalled the app. Figure it out folks, or just go out of business why don't ya I give you 0 stars. You suck.

Hey tv fans...
If you thought with the elections over - and the year coming to a close - christmas almost here - big specials - fresh new ideas - improved services for the holidays and new year...
Annnnhh. Sorry hans. Wrong answer...
Once again - pluto - an apt name as it is the further planet (planet / non planet.?) from us. like the signal they send - takes for ever.
The new news - suddenly - whilst halfway thru the amazing show ''burn notice'' - these f___ers decide to cancel providing. No warning. I JUST GOT BURNED.
Weird. And typical. Now - for some C4... and a relay station to score one for the good guys.
Maybe elon musk will buy this joint - and fire these loser employees. Yay...
In the meantime - have a nice holiday..

Well... I watch just a handful of show and skip around before I get numb out of my mind with the garbage BS left. Bloomberg bull$#*!ter and Prop 13 tax $#*! and texting commercials. Same $#*! over and over and over and I mean repeated right after it plays... constantly. One commercial was about all when I first started and then it's constant now. The same socialist shot down your throat $#*!... condoms, dreamer, texting and over sharing... Jesus. Figures... it's just propaganda from Pelosi $#*!head California. I hope you fall off the $#*!ing map you reptiles... I will never pay for this mind numbing habit.

Lots of bad Pluto reviews here. But lets put some comparison reference in here. Crackle, a direct similar competitor, is way way way way worse than Pluto. Pluto is GREAT compared to Crackle. So I am giving Pluto 5 Stars.

Pluto = $#*!
February 27, 2022

You see something on FB that looks interesting, you click only to realize it's PukoTV! The video won't work, but you'll get more pop ups than a Viagra convention. Total garbage waste of time, screw PukoTzv!

Pluto? Uh eh...
June 5, 2022

Alot of peeps complain about "all the commercials", well it's a free service, what do we expect here? But why can't you pause or anything else really on the "on demand " feature? Not near as good as Tubi, but again it's free. Update: blindman here found the pause button, so there's that. I gave it a special extra bonus star for that

Trying to watch the matrix. Shouldn't be hard, right? Well I get an hour into watching it, with the atrocious video player that buffers so damn much and is so slow, not to mention you cant pause during commercials (wtf) and I accidentally click exit on the remote. Shouldn't matter, I can just re-open the app and keep watching, or so I thought. So I re-open the app, only to find that it didn't save my progress. Ok, doesn't matter too much, I can just fast forward. Well, it turns out you can only fast forward if you watch *every* single ad up to the point you left off. Yes, even if you're just fast forwarding to a certain point and not watching anything before it, it still makes you watch every single ad. Awful video player, awful UI, terrible quality. 0/10, would not recommend unless its a last resort

I have Pluto TV on my Amazon Fire TV stick. There is a limited ability to view a channel guide. There is a horrible problem with buffering., I have several other apps on the Fire TV stick and those do not have buffering issues. Nor do I have these issues streaming from other sources and apps on my laptop or tablet.

Commericals
November 26, 2020

A good app all except the Democrat commericals. Get sick of seeing them. WAY to many. Yes, I know I could go to another app but this one has a lot of the old shows that are good. PLEASE quit showing so many of those commericals.

All the political commercials are pointless, like I'm watching iron chef, I don't care about how Kevin stitt sucks at his job, the political commercials just make me want to uninstall the app and just watch peacock or something better

It use to be 5 stars.
April 14, 2023

I still enjoy plutoTV but that music they use when they don't have an advertisement filler is horrible. The plunk plunk of a very short stinged instrument quickly grows to be irritating. I would much prefer another ad or even the silence we used to enjoy.

All day (yesterday too) Shout TV has been showing movies instead of what is titled and showing what should be playing. So instead of Celebrating laughter: Carol Burnett, which is what is titled to be playing now, instead there's a movie showing and it's been playing for several hours! Yesterday was supposed to be the Tim Conway show all day but there to was a movie(s) playing ALL day. It's so annoying b cuz added this channel to my favorites purposely b cuz of Tim Conway and Carol Burnett. Even tho i can watch the Carol Burnett channel, this channel shows different CB shows that the other one doesn't have. Not sure how long this channel is going to remain this way, but for now I'll take it out as my favorite and check back every now and again.

Please fix this!
Thank you.

Pluto has great shows, news channels, movies etc etc considering its free! 3 stars could have been 5 if the freeze ups, delays in loading, and oh my God! The commercials! Pluto must make $999,999,999,999,99cents a year on commercial contracts. Take some of that money and upgrade PLEASE! YOUR NOT FAR FROM 5 STARS! Over all not a bad company just need some upgrades.

Worst channel ever
September 25, 2020

I can click to play a movie on Pluto and it goes to Pluto live programming and won't load the movie. From what I've seen of the live programming, it's crap that I've never heard of and wouldn't waste my time watching. Pluto is a mongrel channel!

Constant crashes
April 7, 2020

We have a fast connection - 37mbps, but this still has continued interuptions & crashes, seems to work more reliably when left to load for several minutes, but actually getting it to be stable this long is unusual. Channels aren't bad when you can get the app to work, but good luck with that. The app needs considerable work and should really be removed from the market until a stable version is available.

I hate seeing the same commercials over and over. I mute the sound every time and now that pluto shows how many commercials the viewer can expect (thanks for that, pluto) I can now leave for the five to ten minutes it takes before returning. The number of commercials greatly increases the run time for movies and pluto heavily edits the movies, leaving out a lot, so they can add even more commercials. I'm watching pluto movies and shows far less now. I prefer, by a large margin, Tubi.
