Hello dallas182,
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities for help with your Apple Watch and Now Playing.
Please verify you are using Now Playing correctly as per this help article: Use Now Playing on Apple Watch- Apple Support
If you still need help, please try restarting your iPhone and Apple Watch once more, but using the following sequence:
1 - Power off Apple Watch
2 - Power off iPhone
3 - Power on iPhone
4 - Power on Apple Watch
Be sure you've waited for each step to complete before proceeding to the next one. Just to verify we are talking about the same steps, please check these articles:
If you still have trouble, I recommend forcing the Netflix and/or Hulu apps that this is not working with to close. This article will help: If an app unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open - Apple Support
If you need help still after these steps, please provide the iOS and watchOS version for your devices. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
