Those ads are probably displayed by google's launcher, you can easily disable it from adb and use any other launcher you like. I personally use FLauncher, I love how simple it is, I don't need anything else
Also for anyone readying this in the future, you can find the android tv launcher app under apps and uninstall it's updates, then in the play store set apps to not autoupdate. This prevents the launcher from updating to its newest version which has the ads play through it.
Found this out while downgrading my sheilds to 8.2.3 and when the launcher app updated I still saw adds.
Here is a well written guide how to downgrade to 8.2.3 that I followed if interested. It's not required but I find it's alot more stable.

Took about 30min on my second sheilds once I figured out the first sheild after 2 hours.
