I remember the “OLD DAYS” when a TV set was 12inches and black and white. The programming was exciting, interesting and informative in a brand new way.
Now my YV is 42”, Glorious color, stereo sound, takes up little room and the picture is so sharp we can’t sit too close to a sword fight.
The describes the TV set. The television “programming” is so atrocious that I’ve outprogrammed ALL of the “network” channels.
History, science, good old movies carry the day.

You know where I can find one of those old 12” black-and-white TV’s? I want to get one to watch NFL football on for that month when they’re all wearing pink.

I agree. The TV has not been on for many months.I can’t bring myself to watch it. Stupid shows and insipid commercials to fund the stupid shows.

What happened to reading a book and picturing the story in your mind. If you read the book and then watch someone else make a movie of it the movie never lives up to how you pictured it. IMHO
