“I purchased a LG 75" tv and want to mount it over my fireplace. However the fireplace is non-vent. The studs are on the right and left side of the fireplace, just drywall in the middle. Are you able to mount it and if so, how?”

If you still have this at least 3-year-old TV and it's still being used, two things, you can have a board put in between studs in the wall. They should be 16" or 24" on-center. I think it's doubtful that there aren't any studs on/behind the wall of your 75" TV. However, get a stud finder and locate whatever studs there may be and mount a 2"x 2", 2" x 3", or a 2" x 4" board between whatever studs you can locate, then attach a TV wall hanger (of your choice and design) on the studs and subsequently hang your TV with the equipment that is supplied with the wall hanger. Secondly, if you do have a working fireplace, I wouldn't recommend placing your TV over it under any circumstance due to the heat and possible smoke given off/from the fireplace when used. Thirdly, if you're writing to and from a Best Buy input, either hire them or another company to hang your TV. If you buy a large TV of this nature, Best Buy will deliver and hang it for free as they have recently done for me.
