It's something you get over an internet connection, so you could use
something like a Roku box.  Some smart TVs now include the ability to
receive streaming services, but I haven't had experience with that.

As I understand it, U-Verse is something of a competitor to Netflix,
so a direct connection is unlikely, I would think.

Cheers,
Jeff

We access Netflix on an older TV with a Roku.

We have Uverse as well.  If you have Amazon Prime, get a FireTV  for 
under a hundred dollars.  You can get NetFlix and  thousands pf Amazon 
Prime films, shows, and music galore - best of all three worlds.  Fire 
TV even has Echo/Alexa as well...

    What, exactly, do you mean by "U-verse"?  U-verse TV, or U-verse 
Internet?  If you can get one, you can get both, and the latter is just a 
broadband connection... it doesn't care what you watch over that link.  So 
get a smart TV ( or add an adapter to your existing set ), connect it to 
your home network, and watch Netflix or anything else on the Internet 
on your TV.

    If you want a Netflix channel to show up in your U-verse Guide, yeah, 
good luck with that.  I doubt that's possible.
