Good luck finding one. When I wasn't so dangerously poor, I looked for one to replace my piece of shit Roku. I fucking HATE the Roku TV. First one died way too early.
It sounds like shit without the sound bar. Wheb I was using the smarts, it's sluggish as fuck, creepy, tries to tell me where to stream whatever I'm watching - but decided my video games were shows...
And why would I buy whatever is on? I obviously already have access to it by DVR, DVD, or air, or something.

I've only made cursory searches for dumb TVs, but I'm certainly aware they're tough to find and very very expensive. I just hope I don't *need* a new TV before I can afford one I'll be happy with.
I've missed most of the creepy stuff from Roku. I run a pi-hole on my network which the router passes *all* my traffic through and that seems to be successfully blocking my TV from phoning home to Roku's telemetry and ad servers. I highly recommend setting up a pi-hole if you have the means and the spoons to manage one. It does a lot more than just block Roku tracking.
