Hello. You can use the following steps to delete a series from recording on the DIRECTV Stream app.
1. Go to the show you want to cancel
2. Hit more info....then "view all episodes."
3. then cancel the series recording.
You can also go to the show in the DVR listings, click on it and repeat the same steps. If you have more questions don't hesitate to contact us. Miguel, DIRECTV Community Specialist

If we only want to delete one episode of a series, how do we do this? Also, could answers be aimed at the elderly who are lost?

Can explanations be simpler for those of us who are old and fairly stupid? When you say "go to the series," how can we do this? Also, what about deleting only one episode of a series? So sorry to be O&FS

Are you using an iPad? You should be able to simply swipe to the left on the episode title and you'll see "delete" as a selection.

@oldandfairlystupid Do you have Directv Satellite service or do you have Directv by Internet/Streaming?

I am having same issue. We cannot delete series or individual episodes. We have the Opsrey DVR and was told by Directv tech support to replace the DVR. We did. Same problem. How do you delete from the Cloud? We went online via laptop to Dirctv account, deleted episodes and individual recordings. Reset DVR and shows are still not deleted from our list.

Huh? DirecTV Streams recordings are only stored in the cloud. External DVR's are not supported. External DVR's recording are for satellite, not DirecTV Stream.

Interesting. Here is what Directv sent us. I installed and it worked great. Then about 8 weeks ago, we could no longer deleted single episodes or series that were recorded. We have Spectrum Internet Service. We connect the Spectrum Router to a Directv C71KW-400. We also have 2 P21KW-500 in 2 other rooms within the home. It worked just like it did with the DT Sat service we had for several months. About 8-10 weeks ago it stopped allowing us to delete. We tried to delete online but that does not work. We called DT and they said it must be a bad DVR. Shipped new one. It does the same thing. Thanks.

All I can tell you is that DirecTV Stream and its associated app, uses the CLOUD (internet storage) for recorded content. Being cloud based, content is available anywhere by any supported streaming device. It does not support external DVR's. DirecTV satellite and DirecTV Stream are 2 different subscription services, and credentials and content are not interchangeable.

Here is the support document watching and recording content with the service here
