MacBook Pro not recognizing JVC TV as 1080p

I have a 28" JVC 1080p Television hooked up to my MacBook Pro for an external monitor. I am using an HDMI cable; I have tried going through a USB-C Hub and a USB-C to HDMI adapter with the same results. The MBP is not recognizing the TV as 1080p. It is recognizing it as 1366x768. If I scale the resolution to 1080p, the picture is grainy and text has a white halo. What gives? How do I convince my MPBP that the TV is 1080p native?
