Plugging coaxial cable directly into tv

[tmm1231]

I recently purchased a new samsung 55" class MU9000 4K UHD Tv.  My Fios TV plan is only local channels as I stream mostly.  Do I need to have a verizon set top box, or can i plug the coax cable right into the tv?  Thanks.

Will plug straight in.

TV should get local channels after you do a scan.

You are liable to get a lot of other channels as well.

They are channels that FIOS uses for things like ad inserts.
