I would like to access iTunes from a Panasonic TV with Media Server option.
Should this be possible?

I think the easiest way to go about this would be with an Apple TV.

Mine is set up for home sharing so I can access all the media on my iMac. I also have itunes match and can access all my music on my Apple TV that way as well.

Thanks for that. Just wanted to investigate whether it is possible on the Panasonic without the expense of the Apple TV.

See if the TV supports DLNA. Then you can install a free DLNA server software on your iTunes server and your TV will be able to access it. I use Plex Media Server and it works great.
