Unplug the tv and ground it to remove any static electricity.  Then let it sit for a day.

If you unplug the TV and smear a little honey on the back the ant will come out.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
