It could be a loose connection at one of the receptacles before the TV and bathroom. Manufacturers will use the back of one receptacle as a junctions to the next and sometimes a wire may come loose. You might want to check the working one previous to those receptacles for a loose wire.

All my GFCI outlets weren't working the other day. I tried hitting the reset on the plug and they didn't work. Checked the breaker and it wasn't tripped. They started working after I turned the breaker off and back on so who knows.

I did check the one under the bed and behind the bedroom tv and found that two wires were completely coming out of the bayonet type holder...so went to Lowes and bought another plug that I screwed the wise to instead of the cheap plug...fixed my problem as you said check for a loose wire...with all the jumping around the motorhome gets no wonder they were coming out...thanks for getting me to look there
