I'm not sure about the TV across the room, but I certainly see the pixels on a 2k 23" monitor. I'm using two now and every second I'm itching to get back to my Macbook's Retina display. Everything else about these monitors is fine... except pixel density.
In Windows this is better (for me) because I personally like the subpixel rendering there - it's aligned to pixel boundaries more often and looks clearer to my eyes.
