Netflix is currently unavailable on apple tv because Netflix is down
This issue also appears when Netflix servers are down. If you have tried the above technique and you are still getting the error from netflix please check here to determine if Netflix servers are up.
You have a local network issue
If netflix is up and you have tried the above technique then you might be experiencing a local network issue. Its outside the scope of this post to diagnose the faults with your local network. A simple test is to try to visit youtube on the appletv or try google on your computer. If they are down then you have a local network issue.
This does not solve the problem.
it solved the problem that I had, which is why I wrote it here.
THANK YOU SO MUCH OMG pretty little liars, here I come<3

It seemed to work once but the problem continues!!!
yeah, I think it works if you have an issue on your appletv, but it doesnt work if netflix have a network probelm -ie if you cant access netflix on a pc then you cant access it on your apple tv, but if you can access it on a pc but not on your apple tv then this will fix it
