If it is the 3rd gen Apple TV then it requires a workaround for 2 factor authentication (need to enter password, manually request code and add to password). That model is also classified as obsolete and most providers have dropped support for their server based channels.

Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication - Apple Support (CA)


However, if it is an Apple TV 4K (3rd gen) then it may be something else.
