Are there TVs that require an internet connection to simply use without "smart" features?

    Not as such, but there are models that will be crippled in various ways by the lack of a connection.

    I saw one that would frantically try to connect (to what, I don't know) for several minutes out of every hour and while that was going on (because it was offline) the UI would slow down.
