Vertical TV show listings without titles and app freezing on Apple TV after update

After update my TV show listings/thumbnails do not have show title underneath, are vertical and I cant change them like previous versions. Plus app freezes when in settings. How to adjust. They list properly on actual TV.

Not able to access full apple tv catalog on Samsung smart tv I am trying to watch Shrinking in my Apple tv app on Samsung smart tv but it was not showing up even though i even searched for it. Later I noticed that not only Shrinking was not available but also all the popular shows like pluribus, severance, ted lasso, etc are not showing up as well. I also had issues accessing paramount plus content through apple tv app when I purchased it through apple tv as well. I already tried log out and logging back in again, Delete and reinstall the app and update my tv as well. Did anyone else had this issue? If yes, how did you fix it.

Up next content missing on home screen Starting yesterday, the “top shelf” row on the Apple TV home screen no longer shows content. It usually shows a running list of what I’ve been watching. It’s pretty key functionality for me. I’ve toggled the setting to change the top shelf to recommended content and back. Recommended content works but up next no longer does. all I see is the gray Apple TV logo. its up to date and I’ve restarted it.

Apple TV+ keeps shrinking credits and plays next episode How do I keep Apple Plus from shrinking the credits down after an episode? On my iPad, while watching Severance, they make it almost impossible to watch the extra content after the credits. The picture keeps shrinking to the upper right and "Next Episode" pops up. I do not want to watch the next episode, I want to watch the credits and the extra content docs. [Re-Titled by Moderator] Original Title: Apple + keeps shrinking credits and plays next episode

Thumbnails have been replaced with Poster Art and in macOS Tahoe the Titles are no longer there. You can submit feedback to let Apple know you need to see Titles -> Feedback - Apple TV App - Apple

As to the App freezing, try force quitting the tv App and restarting your Mac.
