Google TV seems pretty great to me. I explicitly chose a TV with it over roku

Google TV impressed me by having a "Basic TV" option for sets that come with it, that disables most smart features, which is useful in a pinch when you can't find a dumb TV (such as a Sceptre) or monitor usable as a TV. It's kinda weird to praise Google for implementing something that halfway respects privacy, but here we are.

Are you saying Google TV has a OTA channel option? This is exactly what I'm looking for, but I assumed since there wasn't an antenna input on the Google TV then there wasn't a way to watch OTA using it...am I misunderstanding what you meant?
*edit* Aha, I didn't realize Google TV was also included on some TVs and wasn't the just the Google TV dongle with a remote.
