Just because something is painted black on one side doesn't mean it's black on the other side, I believe in checking everything. One of the first things I learned in engineering school was make sure it's plugged in first!!! Duh!!!
Yes - 'typically' is important. Everything in these RV's can be different from unit to unit - as has been shown many times...
However an outdoor TV I would EXPECT to be plugged into a GFI/GFCI outlet... It is in that case an outdoor electric appliance and should be protected - so I would say they did the right thing there.
