Good news!! WWE has finally added options to resume watching shows where you last left off, and an "add to watchlist" option, for both individual shows and series, to the Network's functionality

About f***ing time! This should've been a thing since launch, but hey, at least it's finally there. This makes watching the Network 30% less annoying.

There's also a small function at the home menu where you can resume watching the last thing you had on.
Still, about freakin' time.

I've always had the resume function on my Roku. Strange that it wasn't on everything.

Was this just updated very recently (assuming this affects the Roku version)? I was watching the Network basically all day and didn't notice it at any point, but my app might just not have been updated yet. I've been really hoping for something on the home screen, because sometimes I forget where I am since I've been watching chronologically.

This is so great to add to the Network I can almost forgive it for clearly being their way to hide them fixing the glitch on PS3 where VOD just drops off entirely on the fourth video you play instead of playing a commercial beforehand.

Now you can start watching on the PC and resume watching on extern devices for example. Just like on Netflix and Amazon long time before. It works on my PC and PS3 but on the Fire TV I can't open my Watchlist. A nice bonus, when you resume you don't have to watch the annoying rating spot again. At the next update they should place the Watchlist in the main menu and not in 'My Account'.

When I loaded it back up again after the update it had the new options.

Thank God they finally did the resume watch feature. So many PPV's I've never watched before, watched half of and then never went back to. This will make things so much easier to keep track of.

Not sure if anyone else was having this problem, but the Network actually loads on Chrome for me now. Previously I would have to use my Internet Explorer plug-in in order to get a video to load.

I read this as "resume'" as in we could watch the WWE hiring process.

okay now for them to add a preview image to where we are fast forwarding to instead of only with the chapters.

Is there an update for the android app I missed? I'm not seeing one and none of these new functions are on the app.

As an exclusively Xbox 360 based user of the network I cannot praise the new additions enough. The network is almost faultless now, speaking from a usability perspective.

Great additions. I have always had the 'resume' function to a degree with Roku, but I applaud these additions.
On another note, I just has my first 'ad' which aired at the beginning of an on-demand old Raw. It was for a cellphone coverage company, though I already forgot the name of the company.

Was it the one where the mother removes her son's thumbs after spending too much money? And then his little sister sucks on one? Because I swear, that's the only one I ever see and it never stops being weird.

It was always on ROKU. Now it just slows things down a second I guess to catch up to other devices.
