@MikelSpikel 

Is it only on the Roku Channel where you have this issue? Do other apps work?

What's the model number of the Roku device? Settings > System > About

Re: My Roku channel is black and I can’t watch

Hi @MikelSpikel,

Thank you for reporting this issue to Roku Community!

I understand that when you are unable to access The Roku Channel? is that correct?

A few more questions here to better understand what you're experiencing: 
1. Are you using a Roku TV or a Roku device?
2. Does the issue only occur on a specific channel or all channels on your Roku device?
3. Are you receiving error messages or codes when accessing the channel?
4. What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far to try to resolve the issue?
5. What are you seeing on screen? Can you provide a screenshot of the issue you are experiencing?
With more information, we will be able to assist you further.
 

Best regards,
Mary
