Lack of NBC on Demand

Xfinity commercials say "watch all your favorite shows on demand with Xfinity".

 

NBC is owned by Comcast. You'd think that all NBC programs would be available on demand for Xfinity customers.  However, they are not.  None of the Law and Order shows are available and Harry's Law is also not available on demand.  Why?  Where's the advantage in being an Xfinity customer?

There is more to it than a network deciding what to release to On Demand.

 

For some shows the production company may not want it available via On Demand.

If they can't have all NBC shows "On Demand" then they shouldn't falsely advertize that "all" your favorite shows are available.

Re: Lack of NBC on Demand

Yeah.  "All" has always been misleading.  What was really annoying was when they had Jane Lynch (from Glee) doing their advertisements touting On-Demand and FOX wasn't even available On-Demand at the time.  Then they had Neil Patrick Harris doing their advertisements and How I Met Your Mother wasn't (and still isn't) available On-Demand.
