I explore what's on the screen with my finger, and if what I want isn't on the screen, I'll do a double tap and hold and then drag my finger from left to right or bottom to top or the reverse until what I want is actually on the screen. A double tap will then work. There are also some tricks you can use, such as searching for the show you want to watch or resume watching. There are podcasts on applevis.com that do a better job of describing it than I can do.
