I read somewhere that the MBP detects your external monitor as a TV and thus does not do any font smoothing or anything like that. They then gave registry codes that can "force" the fix...

I have a much simpler fix that actually works: On your LG TV (and most likely many other TV/monitors) click on input > input label > select PC

This sends the info back to the MBP via HDMI that your TV is being used as a PC monitor and gives its intended clarity! I hope this helps folks who are still wondering!
