In the world of on-demand TV via streaming, there are multiple alternatives that cover all segments. FuboTV is one of the best known names in the sports segment.

FuboTV offers multiple channels where users can enjoy the best sports from the biggest leagues in the world. It may be the ideal service for those who just want to watch sports without paying for extra channels that they won’t watch.

However, currently many FuboTV users are unable to enjoy certain matches because the service is not working or getting stuck in a loop on Root Sports channel.

So my @SeattleSports app never works and @fuboTV is glitching hard tonight. So I tuned into the #angels radio network..it’s a heavy dose of doom and gloom over there. Nice reminder of what it was like and what it’s like now #seausrise #mariners.

Most reports point to FuboTV getting stuck in a loop when users try to load the Root Sports channel.

@fuboTV why is the gamecast in root sports stuck in a loop in the Mariners/Angels game. You have been broadcasting the same pitch for the past 30’minutes

Does FUBO have Root Sports Plus? It’s working on that channel for me….just endless pitches on the main channel.
