My extended family gave me grief recently because we have 3 big screen TVs in our house.I don't think it is that big a deal because in each case we upgraded.We bought our furst big screen about 13 years ago, is the old cabinet style projection big screen(45 inches).When our kids 27 inch TV crapped out about 8 years ago we,we put the 45 inch in the kids playroom and bought a 52 inch HDTV for the frontroom. About 2 years ago I bought my wife a 50 inch plasma screen for our bedroom. When the projection screen craps out we plan on replacing it with a 50+inch LED.I

i was just thinking the other day about how for most of my life i had a 19" TV as the main TV in my house

my 52" SONY is two years old now. how quickly you get spoiled for HD content...

i have the 27" tube TV that used to be in my living room in my bedroom. it barely gets used though

My Opinion Matters

One. I don't really understand the compulsive need to put a tv in every room of the house.

yermom
12/28/2010, 06:59 PM
well, do you really want to watch Spongebob every time the kids do?

of course, i think the OP needs a bigger screen in general as well

For the record we have two tv's and I love Spongebob.

3. 52" living room (soon to be 58"), 42" bedroom, 42" office. I move the one in the office to the back deck to watch games out there. Can't bring myself to buy one exclusively for the deck.

0.

My mom has the expensive HD big screen and she lives 5-10 minutes away so that's where we go to watch OU games. Neither me nor the kids spend a lot of time watching tv otherwise so its really not a justifiable expense.

Oddly enough, I would love to have a tv on the ceiling over my bathtub. Being able to take a bubblebath, drink a glass of wine and be able to watch a movie at the same time would be priceless.

I have a 42" Vizio. I absolutely love that TV. What I really wanted at the time was a Samsung, but the Vizio's picture quality was almost as good and costs a lot less. Plus, they're American.

I'm a big big fan of Vizio.

0. If I get a nice TV then people are going to want to come over games and what not which creates a mess. I find it easier just to show up with beer at peoples houses and watch it there.

One. Don't know that I'd want another unless I was married. I have a 720p 19" in the bedroom that more than suffices if I want to watch a movie or football game in bed.

Only one, but I have developed the habit of holding the remote at all times.

When I was young, my dad used to walk into the room while we were all watching something and change the channel without saying anything. Yes, even if adults were in the room, not just us kids and our cartoons.We were in the middle of nowhere also, so it wasn't like we could just get another TV - the house had one antenna on the roof and it only attached to one TV.

Long story short, the remote for our OU watching TV (the 50-inch one) gets hidden every time dad visits... and the times that it doesn't, we are suddenly watching the History Channel/TV Land/Weather Channel during halftime... or a commercial break... or when the other team has the ball. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Too late.

I just had to share the story of daddy and the TV. I know he was paying the bills and all back then, but he continues to do this in other peoples homes, including mine. During the Big 12 championship game, I was monitoring the score ticker on ESPN.com so that I could tell when halftime was over :mad:

Only one. We bought a 32" on sale this weekend for the bedroom, getting rid of the old monster 32' CRT. We lost a little bit of screen real estate, but now you can see other parts of the room besides a giant black box on a stand.

Two:

1)A Westinghouse 42" 1080p LCD that I bought 4-5 years ago when I got my PS3.
(It replaced an RCA 27" CRT HD monster that I had for a couple of years, but clipped the screen due to a DVI/HDMI conversion)

2)A Toshiba 46" LED (Full Array Back-Lit), that I have had for a couple of months and love....a bit too thick to hang on the wall, but outperforms edge-lit LEDs by a mile in the black department...only problem I have with this set, is it was presented as 240hz, but is actually 120hz that uses a "shutter" to double the refresh.

The 42" got moved into the bedroom after the new one moved in.

One 42"

Same here, and it took years to get it because Mrs TU wanted to find just the right piece of furniture to put under it. I finally shamed her into getting the TV anyway. :D
It's amazing how much lighter and better in every way they are than the old tube sets.
