youtube_dl.utils.ExtractorError: This video is only available via cable service provider subscription that is not currently supported. You may want to use --cookies.

Description

I tried other videos on the Science Channel that don't require login and they work fine, but for videos that require login, passing --cookies results in a 403 Error and the recommendation to use --cookies.

I also tried some go.discovery.com URLs with the same cookie file and it is working properly, so the cookie files is well formed.

The extractor works fine in version 2019-07-30 (see more logs below) so the problem may be caused by some of the latest changes to the discovery extractor.

Going back to youtube-dl 2019-07-16 fixes the issue so the problem may be caused by some change introduced recently on the code and not changes on the website
