If you Google vizio setup or something like that, someone has a custom setting to eliminate the soap opera effect. I tried the settings and I am extremely pleased. I bought a Vizio 60 E series, which is the lower class. I am very pleased with it despite missing a view bells and whistles.

I am able to stream my laptop screen to my tv. This eliminate having to pay for Roku, Apple et al. All network shows are available for free on the internet. As for movies, imdb, youtube has some free ones. For $8.99 you can stream from Netflix tons of HD movies. No cable for me!

I have a couple of the newer Vizio 55" HDTVs. Walmart specials at around $600 each. The one at the lake runs off my IPad which has my SlingBox app on it. I'm watching my home cable box over 100 miles away, local news, DVR etc. So far, very happy and I finally ditched the $70+ DirecTV bill.
