      ugh I bought a Roku TV 2 years ago because it was cheapest option at walmart. Guess I’m going to be in the market for a dumb TV next because these “smart” tvs ain’t shit and I sure as shit don’t want to support fox in any way.

        I f-in hate “smart tvs.” They’re so dumb because in two years, the software loses support so you’re either “making do” or “gotta replace it?” I guess, it’s smart for the manufacturer because they’re playing the “fools.”

        My 2012 LED 32” is going to be repaired as long as possible.

        I’m buying 2 Sceptre TVs. That’s the only manufacturer that I’m aware of that still makes dumb 4K large panel TVs. 86" are all 2,500, 75" are 1,000 and they only drop from there.

        If someone knows of another brand that’s still making TVs like this, I would really appreciate the info.

          Have a couple Sceptre monitors around the house, about 10 years now. They’re great, no smart garbage installed. Don’t know of another brand making something similar.
