Netflix search 'hanging' on Apple TV

[wayne905]

For a few weeks now, when I use my Apple TV to access Netflix, and select Search, the ATV hangs up on "connecting to Netflix" and never seems to go any further. Anyone else having the same issue?

Had this issue last night with accessing Netflix at all - don't have an account with them but tried to access via the 1-month free trial directly from within the ATV app, and got the hanging Netflix chad.

This happens to me a few times, I just unplug the ATV for about 10 seconds then plug it back in. It fixes the problem... though it is tedious. Doesn't happen very often, though.
