Subtitles blending into background?

I stream this show through my ROKU, but sometimes the subtitles blend into the background and I can't read them. Anybody have any luck changing the subtitle options to make it easier to read?

THen how the fúck are the subtitles blending into the background fool, either you're blind or retarded, put you're tampon back in and sit back down. No need to get pissy when i was being friendly as subtitles are white 99% of the time

"THen how the fúck are the subtitles blending into the background fool"

That's what I was asking, fool. The subtitles are set to default, YELLOW. I have 20/20 vision and am not retarded. As for the tampon comment, real original! How did you come up with that one?! Also, I didn't know they had TV's in Amish Country. I'm assuming your Amish by the silly haircut.

Watching it on Netflix right now and they're white, *beep*

This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

Go to the netflix web site. You can change the colors and settings of subtitles in your account settings.

Wow....I'm surprised that anyone would want to answer your question after this. You are a real sunshine.

Ross,

Ignore Wayne, he is just being a troll.

To answer your question I stream through a Roku as well and the subtitles are awful. I sometimes have to stop the episode so I can read them. They need to do better with them.

Thank you!

I didn't know if it was the show, or because my wifi is a little slow. Great show nonetheless.

Nah, it should be the device. I stream via my XBox 360 and I'm almost certain mine are yellow. Same with the iOS app on my iPad.

My Roku is a few generations old (got it around 2009?) so subtitles aren't supported on that one for me to confirm that they're white.

First world problem, perhaps, but annoying nonetheless. :)

Simplest thing is to just expand your mind and learn a new language. Seems worth it for 16 episodes of Netflix gold!

Makes sense to me!

I don't even get any subtitles! I am using the ROKU as well... I need them terribly! Is there an option to turn them on?
