Youtube App Shows greyed video thumbnails on Apple TV

Since my last upgrade to tvOS 15, I have been having this issue. It occurs about half the time when I go to YouTube home page on my Apple TVs on both the 4K and HD. If I let it sit, it eventually will display the correct thumbnails but then after finish watching something, it may or may not show the grey thumbnails. Sometimes it is not all previews or sometimes it shows all the correct previews and then other times as pictured below, all preview thumbnails are greyed. This is very annoying.


It only happens on my Apple TVs, not on Safari on my M1 Mini nor on any of my iOS.iPadOS devices. I know it could be Youtube but I thought I'd start here.



I sometimes get this situation on my Apple TV's.

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 15
