@RoninWC I've read that the app quality in smart TVs is shit. Especially how people are getting ads too. Some of that was off the back of the RWC and spark. Unless you can keep your main play device up to date life will get even more complex
To be honest, we have no problems at all the the Samsung UI and the apps. Samsung does update the apps as well as the UI quite regularly. I don't have updates set for auto, I like to check myself every couple of weeks.
And there are no ads to speak of at all with ours.
To be honest, we found the Samsung interface easier to use than the Telstra TV, not that it was hard to use at all, quite the opposite really as it had a decent UI. Another benefit of using the Samsung inbuilt apps, it all uses the same remote, which is even better.
It also integrated really well with the IQ4 and we can control the IQ4 with the Samsung remote if we want but generally use the Foxtel remote.
Samsung has an aversion to building FTA into their platforms so you have to switch input to watch 'normal' TV. e.g. they are the only main manufacturer in the UK without integrated Freeview.
Apart from that they do make the best Smart TVs -
i got rid of my Foxtel box for the first time since i moved to Aus. Not worth the 130 a month to be able to record, or rewind. Or watch reruns of Friends. (fuck friends!!!!).

@Crucial I use Netflix on my TV, it's actually great, but all the others I use the PS4 currently and will be switching to Apple TV soon when the rugby season starts.
On my media room tv i run all my streaming through the TV
On my outside TV i run it all through Telstra TV
I don't notice any difference

It's such a Queensland thing to have outside TVs, my cuzzies in Brisbane basically install them in the outside pool area or carport the moment they move into a new place. Thankfully they've all given up smoking now as it was like being in a Sydney bar with their bullshit fake smoking areas.

The Blacklist
I've finished the first half of Season 7. I only still watch this show because of James Spader but I seriously doubt even he can save this show now. They are dragging on the current plot line and continue to showcase the dumbest FBI agent on TV and perhaps the most annoying character on a TV show that I watch. If the writers don't wrap this up soon no one will care when the "truth" is finally known.

Zomboat!
After a Zombie apocolypse hits Birmingham, 2 sisters decide to head to London on a canal boat....
Came across this, sounded like it might be ok if done well.
It was better than ok, I really enjoyed it, 6 eps at 22 or so mins each, short, silly, punchy, fun.
