Purchase entire series not an option on TV app

When a show has a sale to purchase all episodes for a {greatly} reduced price, the option to make this purchase is NOT available in the TV app on any device. As noted in another thread, you can still buy individual seasons, but they cost much more than the entire series price. In the other thread, the suggestion was made to use an iPhone or iPad, where the iTunes Store app allows for this option. But the problem with that is not everyone has an iPhone or iPad. This capability should be included in the TV app. I realize nothing can be done here, but I will also send this request to Apple.

As it happens, I use the TV app on Apple TV, iPad and my iMac. The particular show was Weeds, which was $19.99 for the entire series. I was able to use the iTunes Store app on iPhone to make the purchase, but as I said, not everyone has an iPhone or iPad. I did submit a suggestion to Apple to include these special sales within the TV app. I have also briefly used the AppleTV app on my Vizio smart TV, but that experience is not as good as on the Apple TV device. If I was only able to use that app on Vizio, I would not have been able to take advantage of this sale.
