I have the old Chromecast that came without a remote and it is great. It just sits there showing nature photos until I select something to watch using my phone.
I also have a "Google TV" one that comes with remote and it is terrible. The home screen is full of crap that I do not want. It suggests stupid youtube stuff for the kids. I have not figured out how to make it act like the old Chromecast.

The old Chromecast (without Google TV) also plays much fewer ads for YouTube. I'm holding on to mine.
