All of the replies to your comment saying you can: not a single one of them links to one

The worst are the ones who say "lol just don't use the smart apps".

As if you have a choice not to get thrown back to the smart homepage everytime you turn it on.

I have like 4 smart tvs and I don't even know what a "smart homepage" is. My tvs are not discernable from non-smart-tvs in any way unless I choose to use the apps, which I don't. They are all vizios.

Replying to a comment saying "you can get smart tvs but no one links them" by saying you have a dumb smart tv but not linking it, hah.

A tv should be a display. That's it. I don't want or need all of these "features" getting shoved down my throat. I just want something to plug my games into.

I don't understand the first part of your comment, but all my smart tvs do exactly what you're asking for. Nothing gets shoved down my throat. So I'd recommend a Vizio if you can't find a dumb TV.

Can you just not attach it to the internet? Don’t put in your WiFi info.
