While I get what you're saying, there are some differences between TVs and monitors that may be relevant to OP.

TVs have tuners built into them, if they need to receive overt the air or cable signals.

TVs have remote controls where monitors typically don't.

Large TVs are hella cheap compared to monitors of the same size.

I need to get non-smart TVs for work and usually end up buying Sceptre TVs. They do everything you're asking, but I don't live with them day-to-day so I'm not sure what they're like in that regard.

Yep. Once I hit the password recovery link for a website and they emailed me my old password to me in plain text.

I thought that Trump drained the swamp so that they couldn't do stuff like this?

Fun fact: they actually just fined Alex $1 for each time he said "I don't remember" or "I don't recall that" during the depositions and that's how it got up to over a billion.

You don't really need to do much, and you don't need bridge mode. You're looking to just use your ISP's modem as only a gateway and your router as a router. Connect your router's wan port to the lan port of the modem and then only connect things to your router. You can disable the wireless on the modem if it has it.

Oh God, how do I chamfer an edge?

I take the bus to work almost every day. I have a choice of three bus routes that work for me, one of which runs every 15 minutes. The one I take runs every 30. The only time they have been behind schedule was during a blizzard, but I got an alert on my phone about it.

No one has ever slowed down everyone else while fumbling for change because the busses are fare-free.

Public transportation can work, but we have spent the last 80 years developing a culture of individual car ownership so that we haven't prioritized making public transportation that works for the people.
