I'm sure this has been asked before but. When I'm watching TV & leave the room I have Alexa pause the TV. I can not for the life of me figure out the command to resume play when I return. Thanx

Depends on what device is controlling the TV (e.g. Tivo, Roku, Fire Stick, Logitech Harmony, Samsung SmartThings, built-in device in TV.)

But usually the command is Play or Continue.
