Netflix and Hulu both quit working on my rooted Note 10 a few weeks ago.

As asked already what tablet specifically? Samsung has had dozens of the things in the last few years.

Which older versions of Netflix did you try?
Also, you referred to clearing the cache but you didn't mention using 'Clear data', which you need to do to completely clear previous Netflix installs out. (Without wiping the data, you're just uninstalling/reinstalling the app itself, while the configuration settings remain.) Assuming you're rooted since you can install different versions of the app, now that Netflix is restricting the installation of its app onto rooted devices you have to do the process manually.
