Roku has bundled this along with their recent Roku OS 9.2 update that displays Ads from advertisers who have built tie-ups with Roku to display pop-up ads along with regular commercials.
These Ads come only during commercial breaks and not during regular TV shows or movies but can be equally annoying.

Conclusion
Many users are facing unnecessary pop-up ads on their TCL Roku TVs lately due to the Roku OS 9.2 update. These pop-up ads appear during commercial breaks and between shows or movies on top of regular ads.
You can get rid of these ads by tweaking some settings on your TCL Roku TV. The TCL Roku TV platform uses Automated Content Recognition to show you pop-up ads related to the content you watch. These pop-up ads only affect Roku TVs and not other Smart TVs for the time being.
