Episode missing from box set purchase

S05E06 seems available from my lookup, but I didn’t purchase it, so no full test.

On the episode Details page, try scrolling down to How to Watch, then select the wanted content provider for this [tv Store].

If the issue persists, then please contact the iTunes Store staff about this.

One more thing to try, that I can think of:

Remove the show from Up Next: Click-and-hold an episode tile for this show in the Up Next row. Then select Remove from Up Next.

Force-quit the Apple TV app. Restart the device.

Then go to your Library in the Apple TV app to select the wanted episode to play. (This will add the show back to Up Next automatically.)

Ugh, this is what I was expecting and dreading from Apple. I recently purchased The Closer box set and S5:E11 and S5:E12 won't play - I can't remember the exact message, something like: trouble accessing now. Troubleshooting, closing down and reopening, and spot checking on different days did not do anything. I don't have an Apple TV so haven't tried the above suggestion. Will deal with Apple about it when I have the time and energy. So frustrating, but glad you were able to finally access the episodes.
