Check if there are known outages. System Status - Apple Support
Check internet connectivity for this device. Can other apps stream online content? Try restarting the router for a refreshed connection for devices on your home network.
Check that your device system software is up-to-date. For Apple TV HD (4th generation) or later models, that would be: tvOS 17.5.1. Update your Apple TV - Apple Support
Try a cold restart of the device. Either use the software Restart function in Settings, or temporarily disconnect from power. Restart Apple TV - Apple Support
Try to force-quit and relaunch the TV app.
If the issue persists after all that, then please contact the Apple Support staff for further assistance.
