I suggest your content team and FOX (and what other studios do this) work something out to have ALL ads removed. This is why I will not be buying anymore current FOX shows, and will not buy anymore past seasons until these are taken care of.
    I couldn't agree more. Customers who bought a show shouldn't have to watch ads, no ads is the major reason for purchasing the content. Fox is the only CRAZY studio that thinks they have this right, but they DON'T.

    The studio is supposed to release new encodes to us for the current season with the Ads removed once they start distribution of the next season. This doesn't always happen as you can see.

    Our content team is working with the studios as much as possible to get content that no longer needs Ads so that the ones with Ads can get replaced.

    Thanks for your support and Patience on this

    Thank you for the update. Yes, currently airing seasons should have the ads as you stated. The issue is that the previous seasons have not been updated, and affects quite a few years (The Simpsons being a big example of that). Hopefully they will be updated soon.

    20 minutes later, episode is over... auto play to next episode

    "Thank you for watching... here are some other shows you might enjoy Brooklyn-Nine-Nine and the Simpsons.... "All my problems are my parents fault!!!".... *Family Guy Theme

    "Thank you for watching... here are some other shows you might enjoy Brooklyn-Nine-Nine and the Simpsons.... "All my problems are my parents fault!!!".... *Family Guy Theme

    20 minutes later, episode is over... click continue to play next episode...

    20 minutes later, episode is over... auto play to next episode

    "Thank you for watching... here are some other shows you might enjoy Brooklyn-Nine-Nine and the Simpsons.... "All my problems are my parents fault!!!".... *Family Guy Theme

    20 minutes later, episode is over... decide I dont want to listen to that d**n Simpsons ad anymore and practically regret my purchase.

    So I go to the Simpsons because well... you threw it down my throat to watch it....

    "Thank you for watching... here are some other shows you might enjoy Brooklyn-Nine-Nine and Family Guy.... "What is this, and how do I make my life all about it??".... *Simpsons Theme

    20 minutes later, episode is over... decide I dont want to listen to that d**n Family Guy ad anymore and practically regret my purchase.

    Annoying as Hell is an understatement

    So we go to watch Hells Kitchen, episode finishes "thank you for watching Hells Kitchen, here are some other shows you might be interested in..."

    *Turns off VUDU and turns on Youtube.

    Thank you. This is what is stopping a lot from buying past seasons. I also think it's stupid the studio would put ads on current seasons, after we've paid $20-$40 for a season.

    The ads wouldn't bug me if they were universal, which they are upon initial broadcast. The issue is that the studio has provided other digital retailers with updated episodes without ads after original broadcast season. The ads are supposed to be there while that specific season is on, and at least they are for current shows. Most of the older seasons feature ads for shows that didn't live past season 1.

    Is this something Vudu would recommend we contact the studio to request? Is the studio declining to update? I just wish we knew why the studio isn't allowing Vudu to have the same updated quality encodes they provide to other retailers.

    VUDU, are you even reading this thread? I want to get Season 2 of Scream Queens, but if ads from the previous season can't be removed here, I see no point in buying the new season. I can watch it on Hulu for free.

    Bob's Burgers seasons also have ads. :/ These have been removed from other digital retailers now that these seasons have ended original broadcast.

    Re: Please Remove Ads From Fox Shows

    Vudu needs to get on this and update these shows if they have the updated transfers that remove these ads. It doesn't bother me, but it is annoying to watch an old season that promotes that season as currently airing, when it's been canceled or has moved onto later seasons.

    Re: Please Remove Ads From Fox Shows

    I'm not worried too much about the addition of ads, since these were there when they released. The issue is that the studio has sent over new copies without ads to digital retailers (such as iTunes) that remove the ads about 6 months of airing on television. Vudu's store unfortunately has not updated to these ad free episodes, even on older seasons: Scream Queens, The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Horror Story, etc.

    I own The Simpsons seasons on iTunes and Vudu, but definitely pick iTunes when currently watching as they don't have the ads. it's juts weird watching an older season, and seeing advertisements for shows like Dads which were cancelled after one season... or more recently The Grinder, etc.
