My three year old hit the TV with a bat and this is what happened. Can it be fixed?

Can't post the pic tonight, I'll post it tomorrow.

ETA: Screen is not cracked, it purple, green and yellow lines. Samsung smart TV.

Can't say for sure without a pic (or at least what kind of TV it is... you didn't say... Samsung has made CRTs, Plasmas, LCDs, LEDs, etc...) but it sounds like the panel is damaged inside of the television. In which case, it is likely totaled.

Yeah. That TV's permanently like that now.

Buy another one.

The most you can do with it is gut some parts out of it and sell them, but that's probably not even worth it.
