Can’t delete tv show downloads on iPad

I just got a an iPad 9th generation and it’s a 64 gb. I’ve been trying to delete the downloaded tv episodes I have for a few days now and they just won’t delete. They’re deleted on my phone, but iPad won’t do it. When I try to delete via the storage settings, the settings app freezes. When I delete them via the Apple TV app, they show right back up again as downloaded. Can anyone help me figure out what’s going on with this so I can free up some space on my iPad?

iPad, iPadOS 16
