Pandora can bring a world of new music straight to your TV set and it only requires a little work on your remote and computer. Pandora's TV app works with LG's line of high-end TVs that use its "LG Smart TV" technology, including its three best-selling TVs at time of this publication: the 84LM9600, 42LN5700 and 55LA8600. These models may come with a webOS-powered remote, allowing you to point and click through the steps instead of scrolling with a directional pad.
