Thank you for the response. I managed to solve this issue on my own a few hours ago. 

I previously tried unplugging for 1 minute and then plugging back in. That didn’t work. I still couldn’t reach the Home Screen.

 

In case this happens to anyone else, what finally worked:

 

    • Press the Home button five times.
    • Press the Up arrow once.
    • Press the Rewind button twice.
    • Press the Fast Forward button twice.
    • Wait a few seconds for the TV to restart.

 

This froze the TV for a few seconds and then caused it to restart. Once restarted, it took me to the Home Screen.
