How to unhide movie and TV purchases on latest Apple software?

I just noticed that with the latest iPad/iPhone and Mac software, it is no longer possible to unhide movies and TV shows that were previously hidden. On iPad/iPhone I go to Account Settings, select Hidden Purchases and it only refers to Apps, no movies or TV shows are even mentioned. On Mac when I do the same it opens the Music app and strangely the Purchased section in iTunes Store and says I don’t have any purchases (incorrect) and no mention of hidden movies and TV shows. I only noticed this yesterday and can’t find a solution, anyone else had the same problem and know how to access them? The latest Apple support article makes no mention of any changes here, but for me it doesn’t work at all.

iMac (2017 – 2020)

I just ran into this as well. I was trying to unhide an old tv show and there is no way to do it. If you go to account settings in the TV app on Mac, then click on hidden purchases, it opens music and you cannot access tv and movies. Glad to hear others are experiencing this and I'm not losing it.
