Why? You don’t need a subscription or Roku device to watch The Roku Channel.

The Roku Channel is a pretty good free app.

The Roku Channel is a FANTASTIC free app. Between it and Pluto TV, we're never devoid of quick entertainment.

Check out the "Global Got Talent" channel as an example. It's our permanent background channel for relax time.

This has been slotted in as the opening film in TIFF's Midnight Madness section in September.

It is a parody of biographical films which is awesome. Hearing Weird Al’s voice during the songs is unique but it …works?.

I've been kinda meh on this project all along, mainly because I knew they were taking liberties with the story and I would honestly love a true telling of this life, but after watching the trailer I think I'm all in now. That looks utterly deranged and I'm absolutely digging it.

Jennifer Lopez's voice was not used for songs when she played Selena. Jamie Foxx did not sing when he played Ray Charles. Rami Malek lip synced most songs in Bohemian Rhapsody. And the list goes on.

There's nothing weird about Radcliffe lipsyncing Al here.

Yup. I was more shocked when Taron Egerton really sang Elton's tunes.

I did not realize it was going to be a bio pic parody. That looks awesome and I definitely intend to check it out now!

Terrific NYT preview article on the movie today. I'm psyched.

How can I watch this on a TV without a Roku? It doesn't look to be available on Xbox or PS5.

You don't need a Roku device. The Roku Channel is just an app.

Just an app that isn't available on Xbox, PS5 or my Smart TV.
I can watch it on a computer or on my iPad, but that isn't ideal viewing for the family. Maybe I can Smart Cast it to another TV in the house from the iPad
