Does anyone have any recommendations on a smaller TV? I'd want minimum 1080p and am willing to move up to a 42 or 43 inch size television if necessary. I don't play video games but would like to be able to watch a little Netflix on it. The television would be primarily for watching the news and Flames games.

Help me Obi Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope.
What are your true needs and budget?

Without knowing, and I know others will give a good recommendation, I'll be a little different and recommend looking at a Samsung the Frame.

It's much more expensive than other options at $700, but will do what you want, but is also intended for an application that's unique to most other TV applications as well. It's got an art aesthetic/slim fit profile that no other TVs can match. It's also a good TV to either run art mode, or some people load up a bunch of the pictures and just have it display their high res pics like a large expensive print that would cost hundreds of dollars to print, or somewhat hide the fact it's a TV when not being used as a TV. IMO in a bedroom, that few inches in the profile also makes the bedroom seem a little bigger and tidier.

The only way to justify this TV is to consider the application more than a TV and that it's doing some non-TV stuff that other TVs cannot do.
