Changing the timezone to an Eastern US timezone, restarting and then
changing the timezone back resolved the issue for me. Still took a
little longer than normal to launch the game but did work in less than
10 seconds.
Yet another voice adding to the chorus, in Aus and the TV app just
stopped working. Works fine from my PC browser and phone app, have done
all the uninstalling, restarting, updating possible on the TV and in app
but no joy. Australian also.
