    Can I stream Netflix on KD-65XF9005?
    doug
    over 1 year ago
    Here's how to get Netflix on your TV: 1) Check if your TV is a smart TV: If it is, you can watch Netflix on it. (in this case it is a smart TV) 2) Look for a Netflix app: This may be on your TV's home screen or app store. 3) Use a streaming device: If not, use a separate device like a stick or box to connect to your TV and stream Netflix and other shows and movies from the internet.
