    May I stream videos from Netflix on 55SK9500PLA?

    If your TV is listed as a smart TV, that means it should be able to connect to the internet and run apps like Netflix. To watch Netflix on your TV, you'll need to have a good internet connection and a subscription to Netflix. You'll also need to set up your TV to connect to the internet and find the Netflix app. If you can't find the Netflix app or if it's not listed as a supported app, you may need to check with the company that made your TV to see if it can be added or if it's not supported on your specific model. Once you have everything set up, you'll be able to watch your favorite shows and movies on your TV just like you would on a smart TV.
