• you are using a very old FF

previously blocked elements are being shown and now element picker mode refuses to even select the elements I want blocked.

provide screenshot with whatever ads you get there

[Mesmer7]

No I'm not. I have an old operating system (Mac OS 10.9.5), but the latest version of Firefox ( 78.15.0esr).

In the attached screen shots, I used to have several sections of the right column blocked, including ones labeled 'Prime Video' section and 'do you have a demo real'. Now they're showing again, and Ublock won't even select those sections.

The element picker is working fine on my end.

I get no prime video.

For "reel" stuff add:
imdb.com##.aux-content-widget-2:has-text(reel)

for "prime" try a similar filter.
