When I got home I turned on my tv. I heard a pop and then nothing. No sound or picture. And power light just blinks a few times and cuts back off. It worked fine the night before. No thunderstorms or power outages or anything. Just out of the blue it quit.

It can happen at any time of course, anything electrical can just stop working for no apparant reason at any given time so it looks like you are going to have to dig deep and just before Christmas as well

Sounds like a power supply problem, if you have a warranty/guarantee your ok,but otherwise,like I say its deep dig time ....

I would bet a hundred bucks the bulb blew. They can and do pop sometimes when they go. Your manual should give you instructions how to verify a blown bulb by how the light blinks on the set when it's turned on. Your manual will also tell you how to change the bulb. I've done it on my tv. It takes about 3 minutes and is very simple to do.
