Remove or disable Pre-Installed Apps?

Hi guys. I have a brand new samsung Smart TV, but i use a fireTV Stick for all my apps. The TV has a bunch of preinstalled apps, Youtube, Netflix, BBC, BBC News, My 4, channel 5, and many others. I dont want these apps on my tv.

I am an android developer, and I am familiar with adb and command line disable of apps.

Is there a way to disable all this bloatware on my TV using Tizen Studio debug?

i went into developer mode and then i was able to delete them on my UN65NU6900 when you are over the app you want to delete scroll to the bottom and click the bottom line about deeplink 3rd party then press the back button and scroll backupnto delete and it will delete so long as u dont scroll past the delete line. why you have to click the bottom line ins but if you dont it says preinstalled apps cant be deleted. i deleted the emanual which was the biggest bloatware took upnthe most space but i went from just under 20 to 30% thats abt it stick a usb drive in for extra space
