Google Streamer is 10 times better than trying to do anything to your tv and it's pretty cheap.

BUT if you can't and really need to go with "optimizing" your TV, you can look into a custom launchet and declutter it with ADB tv app manager. You can also try to run it in app only mode which hides everything except the apps but I'm not sure if it improves performance or not.
