  6. We only have the right to offer Desperate Housewives for a limited window on 4oD. This was used earlier in the year when the series was first broadcast on Channel 4, so unfortunately it's not possible for us to make these episodes available on 4oD during this repeated run. We know this is disappointing, and we are looking at the situation to see what, if anything, we can do in future to help viewers who missed the first opportunity to view online.

  12. the old 4Od layout was far better. It seems that us the viewers have been done out of the opportunity to watch our fave programmes and have been left with access to a limited (rubbish)amount. Come on channel 4, pay attention to your viewers!!!!!

  14. I completely agree with everyone else. Why does it list all the episodes and all the series if you can't watch any of them!? I don't understand why 4OD has changed - completely! I was so disappointed.

  15. Come on Channel 4! You have programs like Grand Designs on catch up but not the favourite of many, Desperate Housewives? This site is confusing and has no use as it does not show the programs people want to see! I'm sorry to say I'm disappointed people. Who agrees?

  17. how do we watch episodes?! i couldnt catch up from episode 15 on the old desktop version of 4OD because it started to ask me to rent it which it never used to do; so i decided to wait for it to switch over to the online version and now i can't view anything! also the layout is frustrating. the old layout was better.

  22. I have to agree with every bodies comments on this site. I have been a user of the 4OD site since it first started and I really enjoyed using it and raved about to friends and family. But now it has changed to this new location I am more than dissapointed. Channel 4, you must remedy this as soon as possible, I have not seen one possitive comment about the new site. Surely this will hinder any advertisers wanting to invest in the site and people coming back to it. Channel 4 PLEASE MAKE THIS BETTER!!!

  28. Am getting very annoyed trying to watch my favourite shows and just cannot work out how to play them! The odd one seems obvious but mostly its telling me all about them and not letting me watch them - very irritating.

  29. I am just echoing everyones comments here. I am not sure if you are no longer making available certain programs or if I am just missing a trick and can't find them. I am not sure if you are replying direct to the individuals who have commented or if you just have replied and are not concerned?

  30. I have to agree with everyone on this comment list. Channel 4 you need to read the posts and listen to what people are saying. The new site is difficult to navigate, confusing to use and seems to end up taking you to nowhere... Programs that were watchable are now not? We don't know, we just can't find them. I found 4oD catch up service only very recently and thought it was superb in comparison to ITV's appalling offering. Since the change it is now, frankly, very bad. The BBC deserves our taxpayers money as it does things just right!

  40. So after having to sit through approximately a month's worth of adverts promising us that Online 4oD would be exactly the same as the downloadable version, we now find that this was basically a lie. Thanks a bunch, Channel 4.
