 So a few months ago, I started watching the remake of PRESUMED INNOCENT (the
 one with Lizzy Caplan) on one of streamers when it first came out (can't
 remember which one, I think it was the Hulus).
 
 I made it about halfway through but with everything else I had to watch, it
 kind of fell by the wayside. I remembered it last night and decided to
pick it
 back up again but I couldn't find it on the Hulus, the Paramount, the
Peacocks
 or anywhere else. I searched for it through Apple TV and come to find
it's now
 something I have to pay extra for. It list all the episodes and even shows
 which ones I've already watched but it wants $2.99/episode from now on if I
 want to continue with it.
 
 WTF?
 
 Is this some new ploy by these streamers to wheedle even more money out
of us?
 Like a drug dealer, wait until you're halfway through a show and then
say, "If
 you want to see how it ends, it'll cost ya?"

 
 "Presumed Innocent" was always an Apple TV+ show. Did you have Apple TV+
 (maybe for free?) and then dropped it?

 
 Nope. I've had Apple+ for years.

 
If you have Apple TV+, you should be able to go to the Apple TV+ section
in the Apple TV app, and get the show to go.
 
It's the Apple Store side that's trying to get you to pay. But if you
have Apple TV+ it shouldn't be trying that with you.
 
If all else fails, log out of the Apple TV app, and log back in again.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

This reminds of what AMC did with WALKING DEAD. I liked to watch it on the
streamer because I got a lot better sound and picture than AMC on cable and I
was about four episodes in to one of the seasons and when I tried to watch the
next one, it suddenly started asking for money.
