Yeah, that's not gonna work.  It sounds like the TV runs some variant of Linux, but we're not making Flash Players for TVs.

If the service you want works on ChromeCast/Roku/AppleTV/etc, that might be a better route.  Otherwise, you're looking at hooking some kind of computer up to the TV via HDMI.  There are some purpose-built windows and linux boxes that are pretty tiny and would get it done, but you're not going to Flash Player running natively on a TV or mobile device at this point.
