Since, after all, this is Debian:

Use your choice of:

    - dhcpd: specify the MAC address into a special pool which
      gets an IP address but a default router that doesn't exist

    - ebtables: filter out the MAC address so that it's not
      allowed to pass through your firewall

    - iptables: filter out the IP address you assign to the TV
      so it can't pass through the firewall

The MAC addresses will be on the TV's back panel, or you can
sniff for their DHCP requests. 

There: now your smart-ass TV is a monitor again.
