Hi there, @nelson4family! Thanks for taking the time to reach out about watching Apple shows. We are glad to help and will get to the bottom of this! I checked if this is an issue our engineers are working on but do not see it listed. After you reset the box does it continue to work through the shows or do you have to reset it with each show/program?

I have to reset the box every time I want to watch an Apple show. The show starts out with a commercial, then it will play a recap but when the new episode is ready to start, I get a screen that says video not available, check your internet connection.  It takes 15 minutes to reset then Apple content plays normally.

I am having the same issue.  Just started a few days ago.  What happened between Xfinity and the Apple TV app??? No videos are available. All other streaming apps work fine.  I rebooted, reset system and logged off and back on the AppleTV app last night (with Xfinity assistant), and did get videos to appear.  Today, back to Video Not Available!
