If I use the search function either through the control panel or the Home Screen tile I only get results for music or podcasts.

Is anyone else experiencing this and/or know how to fix it?

    For a little more clarification. If I search just using Siri it will present a couple of TV/Movie options on the bottom right of the screen. But if I use the magnifying glass search tile or the search action in control panel the only results that get presented are for music or podcasts.

    The feature that you’ve mentioned about showing popular TV shows/movies doesn’t appear anywhere anymore regardless of searching with Siri or search bar. The closest I can get to show popular TV shows/movies is using the iTunes apps on the Apple TV.

      Yea seems like a bug having the same issue, but when you used to click on the magnifying glass, used to show you below the search, the most popular things being watched, and as you said, it is now moved to under iTunes movies, and shows but they don’t link to the streaming service you are logged into

        Yeah it’s quite annoying as I came across a few cool shows with that feature and I imagine you did also.

        I don’t know if it’s just me but there’s a lot of glitches in the Apple eco system at the moment. Well I hope they’re just glitches and not intentional changes. Like with Photos the Private Access feature (which is good for the most part) can’t be turned off, so if I want to only see/access certain photos in an app (a photo widget for example) I can’t use the Limited Access function anymore and have to scroll through all photos again to select only the ones I want access to. I think I’ve raised about 6 things like this with Apple over the last 2 weeks.

        This is their Feedback Page to use if you’re having problems with apps etc. It’s not support page but more of a suggestion box in a sense. But worth using.

          Also, remind you when the show came back. But definitely have found movies and TV shows from that list even a few Apple TV + stuff.
