If your smart tv is android based you can try side loading Smart Tube, which integrates ad block, sponsor block and a whole pile of QoL settings you can tweak to suit you.

You can even add android to any tv with a chromecast with google tv, it's a much nicer OS and runs faster than a lot of smart tv OSs

I don't recommend the chromecast. It's incredibly slow and underpowered.

Go for a shield TV, or even a fire stick. Google is selling crap to people, per their usual.
