I went through this process - we bought a "TV" and found it impossible to fight off "watch this" trailers appearing and enticing our little one.

The only solution is to buy "business or gaming monitors" - no built in TV, just connect up a apple box and be done with it.

Even then you can tell Apple is moving from "here is a button to press" to "let us decide what you are interested in"

(Tangent but it's noticeable that the stuff I have bought from Apple Itunes like a kids movie is several clicks away, but the latest movie that I have not bought but will need to pay for is right there on the home screen. No. That's the wrong way round. If I reach up to my bookshelf and the bookshelf needs me to climb a ladder and reach over the books for sale to get to my own darn book, the bookshelf is not doing it's job.

Apple. Be a bookshelf. I paid for a bookshelf.
