The plasma in a plasma television isn't a material that can freeze in the normal sense. When the TV is off the plasma doesn't even exist, it's only created when the TV screen is on and being driven. When the screen is off, each pixel contains a mixture of neon and xenon gases. It's only when these gases are driven by an electrical signal that they turn into a plasma and excite the phosphor display. Plasma is by it's very nature extremely hot, so it can never freeze. If it were possible, you would get no display at all from your TV. I guess it may be possible that there's a temperature at which the plasma cannot form, but I'm guessing that that's absolute zero, anything above that and it will work just fine.
