my '04 Sony CRT RPTV has assorted video modes including an enhanced mode that brightens and intensifies all colors up plus a standard mode, plus assorted other modes such as a theater mode with more laid back color still.
I can't believe ths Samsung would not have some pretty sophisticated means to fine tune the color settings as well either one color parameter at a time or from a menu of choices with names or both.

I have the settings of my front projector very different for how they were originally in an effort to make blacks as dark as possible as well as give me colors similar to what I see at weekly outings to a favorite theater, not more nor less intense.

But like a speaker that produces overemphasized mid-bass, gaudy flat panel colors attract showroom attention. I think you need to carefully calibrate the Samsung and I would bet there is nothing in terms of color intensity you are somehow stuck with.

Start by adjusting down the Blue and green.
