If I’m subscribed to Crave, why is Chucky the series only in French on Crave and on Super Ecran?

Probably Bell only bought the French-version rights. Season 2 & 3 are on Globaltv.com/app and stacktv. No clue about season 1 but it might appear on AMC+ eventually.

Hey there @CMC,

Thank you for reaching out to the Bell Community 🙂

All Crave subscribers have access to both French and English programming. However, not all programs are available in both languages. If the title is not available in the playback language that you have selected in your Crave profile then it will automatically play in it's available language.

Please let the Community know if you have any other questions.

Numerous movies on my watchlist (Apple tv) indicate they’re available on Crave, but when I go to watch them they’re in French only. 
i haven’t changed my language settings. I checked to see if everything is still set for English and it is. 
How can I view them in English? If only the French version is available is there a way to filter those out ?

thanks

Why would a series have 4 seasons in English and then the following seasons are in French only?  That doesn’t make sense to me 

When will Crave update their app to be able to filter out French Only shows and movies?

In case Crave has not noticed, the majority of Canadians only speak English. When will Crave realize this and making all shows & movies available in English. If they choose to include French audio, that is fine but make sure all content is available in English first. 

This is deceptive. Bell is using the english thumbnail for these films. Then only offering the french version. My wife and I just upgraded to premium add free for our kids to watch the hobbit only to find that it is french only. This is deceptive advertising. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
