I don't miss the heavy cathode ray tube TVs but I do agree I grew up watching them and feel lucky to have been able to do so. Today at 74 I have 3 flat screen TVS. a tablet, laptop, and a PC. I only pay for one subscription, Netflix, and use an antenna or ROKU TV for the rest.

Just picture life without TV. Now. There wouldn't be cable, or streaming, or pay-per-view. Think about it.
