YouTube Channel:
For about the last 2-3 weeks, perhaps even a month, my Roku 3 (4200 series) (4230x) has not been able to load the YouTube channel (note: note YouTube TV). It brings up an hourglass loading symbol, then goes to the home screen
Formed Channel:
Also, our Formed channel loads, but won't retrieve any video. The "retrieving" progress bar starts, but stays about 1/8 of the way full no matter how long I wait.
PBS Kids Channel:
A third channel - PBS Kids, has worked, but not as usual. While we are able to view videos, it won't load the "live TV" and instead displays a large pink box saying "issue retrieving Live TV". While not being able to view live TV isn't really an issue for us, the issue here is that the pink box stays on the screen when viewing any of the other videos. This is usually fixed by going to the home screen, then re-loading the video.
Troubleshooting Attempts:
Since all of our other channels are working fine, I've done the following for each of these three:
Nothing has worked. These are our 3 most used channels (other than Plex), so it is really unfortunate that we can't get these to work.
Anyone have a suggestion?

UPDATE 10/20/2020:
I did some more looking and saw that some internet filters might affect video playback. I disabled mine and all my channels were working just fine. Luckily, I can specify device level filtering. Lesson learned, always check internet filters when troubleshooting.
