I’m having the same problem the OP posted about. Usually have no problem playing Apple TV app on MacBook Pro but starting yesterday I’ve been having this issue. The app is open, I see “continue watching”
along with trailers of shows but when I select the show to watch it takes me away for a second and back to continue watching.

Try quitting the App, and restarting the Mac.

What happens when you try to use it on your Laptop?

Does it not open the app?

Does it open but issue an error? If so, what does it say?

Does it simply not play anything?

Is it asking you to subsscribe?

Is this a Mac or a PC?

Are you using the TV app or the Apple TV website on a browser?

If using the website, what browser are you using?

Are you logged in with the same Apple account as on the iPhone
