So, yeah, you may want to back out of that deal if watching the Joe Bob episodes when they debut is something you've gotta be able to do.

Update: They did finally fix it late Thursday or early Friday so that Episodes 5 and 6 were now available.

Obviously if this sticks I'll cut short the deal and get a month of Shudder when the season is complete.

I don't know if I imagined it but I could've sworn there was a thread for the movie Mad God. (Yes, I tried some searches) It's a stop-motion/live-action hybrid by Phil Tippett. It's on Shudder now and it's a surreal plunge into a trippy world. Per Wikipedia
While working on Robocop 2, Tippett began filming what would become Mad God.[6] His work on Jurassic Park led him to believe the days of stop motion were over and the film was shelved.[6]
Twenty years later, with the encouragement of members of his studio, Tippett began working on the project again[7] utilizing crews of volunteers to assist him.[8]
So on the weekends I would get as many as 15 and 20 people coming round. They didn’t all have the talent or skill, but I’d figure out the processes during the week. I had them do all the heavy lifting.[5]
With aid from Kickstarter donations,[7] Tippett was able to create the first three sections which make up about half of the film.[1] Tippett released a behind-the-scenes footage on YouTube during production.[4

It could also be Scare Package 2.
They did this last year with Lucky, which was about two months before the official Shudder release.

My year expires tomorrow, so I cancelled. It offered me a free month to stay, and then said, “Psych! You already used this promotion.”
I may try the year code later, or just take a break from Shudder for awhile.

There's news going around about some major cutbacks and layoffs at AMC. The General Manager of Shudder was just let go earlier today. I hope they don't close it down.

I like the live channels.
I wish Netflix would do that(different movie genres).

Just watched a neat little Thai thriller/horror movie called "The Pool".... loved the simplistic concept but if an American version is done, there would be a few scenes omitted. If you know, you know.

Been spending the past month tearing through my queue in case something does happen to Shudder.

I just renewed my yearly subscription a few months ago. The better be prepared to refund me a prorated form of that subscription if they do shut down the service. I'd rather it stay running for my wife's sake. She watches it the most.
