We are having the same EXACT issues.  So annoying!!  Thought we'd be covered by paying for the entire Season 4, yet now we can't watch it.  I'm not paying for it again, nor should we have to.  We haven't been able to watch anything after Episode 7.  It shouldn't be this hard.

Hi, thank you for reaching out to our Xfinity Forums. We apologize for the inconvenience. Seasons and episodes are released by the Network. If the episode is not available at all it is due to licensing restrictions, to stream to that specific country/territory, from which you are trying to view it or the episode was not selected to be in the season package.

This is why it isn’t getting fixed… it’s available to view it’s just making us pay for it again after we’ve already purchased said content.

Have you had any luck with getting this resolved?  I was just on a chat with an Xfinity rep and so far, nothing has been resolved on my end.

Same issue.  Unable to watch the latest Episode.  Four days on trying to get this fixed by Xfinity via online Support.  The Reps are incompetent, and the issue is still unresolved.

I’m in the same boat. It’s ridiculous that it has been WEEKS and xfinity has not addressed or fixes this issue! I’m asking for a refund

This still isn’t resolved. Looks like the wrong video was added to on demand and it’s not fixed.

Hello, @user_7d807a, I apologize you are still experiencing an issue viewing Yellowstone. Are you able to let us know if you are having trouble viewing Season 4 episode 8 or all episodes past 7? If we can confirm exactly what you are experiencing, we can provide the best possible support.

This same issue is happening to me.  We have watched episodes one through seven.  When we play episode eight, a ten minute behind-the-scenes feature with the actors plays instead, even though the label and description is for episode eight.  Please post the correct video to the episode menu.

Usually, the Network that provides the program, not Xfinity, determines weather a video on demand program is available for free or purchase. I would be happy to look further into this programing for you. 

 

Please send me a Direct Message with your name and service address so that I can fully dive into this for you! I will leave you instructions on how to initiate the message with us! I look forward to working with you soon!

Hey @user_b99d95, thank you for letting us know you are having the issue as well. On demand is the content sent by the networks to us and it appears to be incorrect. Can you send us a direct message so I can help report the issue? You can send one by clicking the "message" icon in the upper right corner of our forum page by the alerts icon. Once you click on that, click the new message icon that looks like a pencil and paper. From there, input our shared handle Xfinity Support to send us a direct message.

@XfinityDena I'm having the exact same issue. This happened to me for episode 4 as well. So frustrating. I'm being told to wait 5 more days to see if it resolves. Ridiculous for the price paid to have to waste my time trying to figure this out.

Same problem here. No issues with episodes 1-8 and now it’s say I need to buy 9 for 2.99! 

I did just call and the guy credited me 17.99 and then told me to subscribe to the paramount network.

@user_a72df0 having the same issue. Purchased the whole season and can’t watch episode 9. Says we need to subscribe or buy for 2.99. Ridiculous! Not impressed with buying the season - experienced many delays with viewing.

Got to the bottom of this last night......this is NOT an individual issue.  Don't waist your time calling Xfinity and having them reset your system, it will do nothing.  The problem exists through VIACOM, the company that collected your $17.99.  I am finished buying anything like this again thru Xfinity OnDemand....if you read the small print, they take zero responisbility for your ability to view anything purchased.  Seeing as it was already Tuesday night with no progress, I called Xfinity and got a $6.00 credit, the cost to view the last 2 episodes on Amazon..........where I will be buying all further seasons/episodes.......

Thank you for doing xfinty’s job. This I udderly ridiculous for as much as they charge for their services we should at least be able to speak to someone from the company that will actually LISTEN and understand the issue at hand. I will not be purchasing anything extra through xfinity either. Amazon is the way to go. I’ve had a problem viewing any episode after the night I actually purchased the season. I can’t even go back and rewatch episodes

Hello, @user_f46e6e. Thank you for your message and for letting us know you've also been impacted with episode 8 as a 10 minute recap. This is not the experience we want for anyone and we'd like to help out. Can you try this temporary solution to see if you're able to enjoy the episode? Please try selecting "Watch Options" and then choose the 47 minute duration asset. Please let me know if this helps.

I had the same problem with S4 episode 8 - it gave me a 10 minutes video interviewing the cast.  I went to a different device that I hadn't used to access Xfinity in quite a while and was able to access episode 8. Then went back to my original device and it was then able to access episode 8.

For those of you who paid to watch Yellowstone Season 4 episodes on Xfinity, are you seeing lots of commercials?

We watched the first season 4 episode last night on the Paramount network via fuboTV (which Xfinity doesn't support yet), and there were many ad breaks, each 2 1/2 minutes or longer, which kind of ruined the experience. When we streamed the first 3 seasons on Xfinity Peacock+, the ads were very limited.

Even though we already have access to the Paramount network via fuboTV, I would consider paying to watch the episodes on Xfinity if that eliminated most of the ads.

Hello @user_29dd6b! Season 4 of Yellowstone comes directly from the Paramount network. You would likely see the same exact ads if you were streaming it with a subscription from us as it's also coming from the same source.

Thanks for the quick response, even though it's not the answer I was hoping for. 🙁

I've read that season 4 will eventually be available on Peacock+, presumably with fewer ads, but I don't want to wait that long.

When it moves to Peacock it will likely have less ads, but I'm like you and have a hard time waiting for shows to move over to other streaming like Netflix.
