Cannot wait to read the huh-larious responses to the title of this thread, but I don't care, even if it sounds like old man yelling at cloud. It is becoming exhausting.

Not that long ago, when I turned on my TV it used to sit there and wait until I told it what I wanted. Then, it went past that in to some sort of Space Odyssey way, where programming was being advertised until I chose something to watch.

Now? Now the fucking thing blares on in the middle of the night...it is alarming even after the last week or so when it has happened a few times...doesn't fucking matter WHEN YOU ARE ASLEEP!...gonna fucking see Joanna Lopez one of these nights, i fucking know it

Anyone else?

It's probably just the hobo that lives between your walls.

I would check and see if you have set any timers or something, change the batteries and maybe even the remote, and if not, unplug it. If it goes on when it's unplugged, you got real issues and I'd move.

Need more information.

What year and brand is your T.V.
Any other T.V's respond the same way?
Is your smart phone, computer infected?
Have you unplugged it at night?
Do you take prescription drugs?
Do you take non prescription drugs?
Have you started hearing voices in your head?
Do you worship demons?
Have you performed a ritual in your house?
Or outside your house?
Sacrificed any black cats?
Or something else?
How long have you been out of the mental institution?
Would you consider going back?

These are just a couple questions I would ask for someone in your "situation"

Goodluck!

Probably not your situation, but sometimes I’ll fall asleep after a movie with my home theater rig still on, and after the system goes into sleep/standby mode, the TV’s input will switch back to cable and the TV speakers will kick on and wake me up.

Your TV is obviously calling for blood. Kill a couple people and see if it stops.

You said 'CFMB, tap dance for me', so I made the effort.

You sure you don’t accidentally have a turn on time set? Works like a timer off on some.

What type of home are you in and do you have any new neighbors?

Odds are it’s somebody with the same TV manufacturer on the same frequency. Hopefully it’s somebody doing it intentionally from the bushes outside. I don’t know where you stand with HY but I’d start there and work your way backwards.

Burn your house down with you inside it.

How to Stop a TV That Turns On by Itself
If your TV is randomly turning on, it’s time to solve the problem. Here are a few tricks to troubleshoot why your TV turns on by itself.

Replace your remote batteries to make sure they’re not turning your TV on thanks to using up the last bit of juice.
Try a piece of thick tape over the remote sensor to see if there’s a malfunction that’s telling the TV to turn on.
Check to see if the power button on the remote or the TV itself could be stuck.
Talk to your neighbors and run a test to see if they are accidentally powering on your TV through the window, especially if they have the same model synced up with a similar universal remote (like the one your cable company gives you).
Confirm that you’ve been powering it off entirely. Are you shutting off the cable box but not the TV screen? It could be flickering back on from a power surge.
If it’s none of these things, it could just be an internal electrical malfunction, like a resistor that’s changed value or a defective infrared sensor. If nothing else works, Kann says to prevent your TV from turning on by itself by unplugging the TV when it is not in use, using a power strip with a switch, and making sure the TV is not on a timer.


The comments section contains other ideas.

I thought for sure HY was back around when I read the title.

any of your connected devices can power the tv on accidentally, gotta change a setting in the HDMI menu.
