The Issue with Samsung TV and Netflix
The issue in question involves you unable to load Netflix as normal on a Samsung TV as the after selecting Netflix in the TV main menu it ends up showing a black screen and nothing else but the blank display.
Also turning the TV on and off will not work in fixing the problem as you might instinctively try.
How to FIX NETFLIX Problems on a Samsung TV
In order to fix this issue we are going to do a complete Power cycle of the TV set. To do this:
1.Go ahead and turn the TV off.
2.Now unplug the TV from the wall.
3.Wait 30 seconds to a complete Minute.
4.Turn the Television set back on.
You should now find that after launching Netflix again it will start and everything will work as it would normally.
Why did this work?
The above worked because most likely its been a while since you last unplugged your TV set and when its not being used you probably had it in stand bye mode. Most electronics will start to exhibit similar or weird behavior if left plugged in for long periods. By performing a power cycle the system is allowed to reset fully and app or issues that you might have had before the power cycle will be gone or fixed.

Any time glad the tutorial helped.
If you don’t solve the problem, Just dial Netflix toll free number and communicate with customer care. They will solve your problem at a time . I tried this too many times
I don’t see the icon so your tips didn’t help. I did unplug the set for a more than a minute. The Netflix icon doesn’t show up at all.
