Banishing the Ghosts of Shows Past: How to Exorcise Your Sling TV "Continue Watching" List
Ah, the "Continue Watching" section. A double-edged sword for us indecisive streamers. On one hand, it's a helpful reminder of that documentary about the mating habits of the Patagonian Mara you absolutely meant to finish. On the other hand, it's a constant judgment, a digital graveyard of shows you started with valiant intentions and then, well, life happened.
Fear not, fellow Sling TV adventurer! There's a light at the end of the "Continue Watching" tunnel, and it's not an oncoming Nicolas Cage movie marathon (although, who am I to judge?). Here's your battle plan to banish those cinematic ghosts and reclaim your digital dignity.
Operation: Delete!
We'll be tackling this beast on two fronts: your trusty web browser and the Sling TV app itself.
Conquering the Couch Potato Front (Using the Sling TV App):
-
Infiltrate "My TV": Navigate to the mysterious land of "My TV" on your Sling TV app. Think of it as your personal TV scrapbook, filled with past conquests (or attempted conquests) and best left unseen by polite company.
-
Spot Your Target: Scan the "Continue Watching" section for the show you bravely started, then...chickened out on. Maybe it was just a touch too much Mara mating ritual for one evening. No shame.
-
Engage the Elimination Protocol: This is where things get tricky, because Sling TV likes to keep us on our toes. Look for a magical "remove" or "delete" button disguised as a gear icon, a bunch of dots, or maybe even a tiny trash can. Basically, hunt for anything that screams "Click here to banish this show to the TV oblivion!"
Dominating the Desktop (Using the Sling TV Website):
-
Launch Your Web Starship: Boot up your favorite web browser and boldly go to the Sling TV website. Log in, Captain!
-
Seek and Destroy: Scroll down with the determination of a Klingon warrior until you find the "Continue Watching" section. It might be hiding near the bottom of the page, plotting your viewing downfall.
-
Eradicate the Evidence: Similar to the app, there should be a way to remove the show from your list. Click that button with the same gusto you'd use to phaser-set a hostile Romulan starship (or, you know, politely remove a show from your queue).
Bonus Tip: The Nuclear Option
Feeling overwhelmed by the sheer volume of unfinished documentaries and reality shows? There's a nuclear option available on the Sling TV website.
Just navigate to "My TV" -> "Continue Watching" and click the "Manage" button. From here, you can unleash the ultimate weapon: "Clear All". This will detonate your entire "Continue Watching" list, leaving a smoldering crater of shame...but also a clean slate for your future viewing adventures.
Remember: With great Sling TV power comes great responsibility. Use your newfound deletion skills wisely, and may your "Continue Watching" list forever reflect your impeccable taste...or at least your ever-changing TV whims.
