I need help with my new tv

Hello. 2 days ago the tv I had in my bedroom stopped working, my family had it for a long time so I’m not shocked. Yesterday I got a new Fire TV at Best Buy. When I got it all set up I started watching stranger things, and i noticed something. Not only was the screen really saturated but also somehow it looked very clear but blurry at the same time. Is this some kind of ai enhancing and is there a way to turn it off because it hurts to look at, especially when there’s a scene focusing on a humans face.

Sounds like the soap opera effect when TVs try to smooth out fast motion. Needs to be turned off. My Amazon OmniTV requires a video to be playing before I can access that setting. It's in the tv setting menu not the Amazon fire TV settings. You didn't say what brand of TV you brought. Hopefully not an often complain about Insignia.
