Hi janfromfarmingdale,


We'll be glad to help out. One common cause for this happening is that you may inadvertently have theater mode enabled.


This can be checked and disabled via Control Center as outlined in Use Control Center on Apple Watch - Apple Support


If you still have issues and that doesn't appear to be the cause, reach out to Apple here: Get Support


Cheers.
