Assuming nothing is wrong with your screen …

Certain Apple TV screens can show a transparency, with a blurred soft version of the screen saver shining through.

If a screen saver clip has two dark corners at one time, then that might be visible in other apps.

If it bothers you, then you can turn off the transparency, for a flat look instead. Settings﹥Accessibility﹥Display﹥Reduce Transparency﹥Off|On
