I don't buy TVs anymore. I just buy a monitor that takes HDMI input. After all, the output of the cable box is HDMI.

Unfortunately, there are still areas where a good TV will beat a computer-style monitor, such as availability in sizes above 30" or so, and coming with a remote that can at least select between input sources and control basics like power/volume/brightness. But I agree with you, a good and dumb screen is what I really want.
Same here.
My TV does not even play sound through its speakers anymore since I upgraded to a surround setup. It literally does just display whatever I feed it through its HDMI inputs.
I kinda like it that way. Should the TV break, I can get a new one and won't have to spend hours trying to set everything back up the way it was.
