This article which says it was updated Jan of this year says to use iTunes to reset my apple TV. iTunes no longer exists.
Would the AppleTV App work for this as well? I'm not seeing the device show up, but i'm unsure if this is because I have another issue or if its not iTunes.
Apple TV HD, tvOS 11
On a Mac with Catalina, use Finder instead of iTunes. See the following from Reset Apple TV - Apple Support
If you have an Apple TV HD and a Mac with macOS Catalina or later: Disconnect the power and HDMI cables from Apple TV. Connect one end of a USB-C cable (sold separately) to Apple TV and the other end to your computer. Open the Finder on your computer, select Apple TV in the sidebar, then select Restore. If that doesn’t work, contact Apple TV Support.

So I got it to show up in finder - not sure what I did, because it didn't appear there the first few tries. Selected reset. There was a small progress circle next to the appletv icon in finder. Then the whole thing disappeared.
But the appleTV is still just blinking.
Sorry, about the only other advice I can contribute is the last few words of the previous: If that doesn’t work, contact Apple TV Support.
