Wall-mount a TV into studs and match the VESA pattern
Added
Consumer Reports says almost all TVs have four mounting holes in a standard VESA pattern, so a mount works if it's rated for your TV's size. Find the wall studs before you drill. For plaster, concrete or brick, or a spot above a fireplace, you may need special hardware or a professional.
The result
Result: Consumer Reports: most mounts suit wood-stud framing with drywall; other wall types may need different hardware.
