61" Samsung

I just talked to a friend who travels a lot, and he was able to get a 61" Samsung LCD with his bonus dollars from his hotel stays.

Anyone know how these telvisions rate out? Seems like a nice set but looking for opinions.

Wow ...that's a big one! I'd be sitting in the dining room in order to sit back from that one ...but I'd give it a shot! LOL.

Yeah it was on backorder, he finally got it last week. Apparently it ended up being much larger than he thought it was going to be.

I am looking at a nice 50" I saw on sale at the local high-end electronics store for $1700.00

50" is plenty big enough for me.

I think 50" would be more than enough for me. I do love tv but I don't want it to overpower the room. When it's off, it's a big black hole in the wall lol. I'd love a media room which was soley devoted to a big screen tv though.

There is a show called "How I Met Your Mother" and the one character on there named Barney is a big player. They showed his apartment and the girl asked why he had no tv and then he hit a button and the whole wall lit up, he said it was a 300" Flat Screen from Japan. The girl said "It hurts my eyes". He said, "Yeah that never goes away."

It was pretty funny.

I haven't watched that show yet, but that line is enough to make me try to catch it next week. That's seriously funny!

In a landscape of TV without many funny sitcoms, this is one of the few I watch and enjoy. I also like the Office and Two and Half Men. Can not think of any comedies I watch besides those.

I'm not much of a sitcom person at all, but the new 30 Rock which is written by Tina Fay is hysterical! I keep wishing it was an hour instead of 30 minutes.

I can't imagine how big it is in actual size. And it would probably have a nice and big picture already. At home my uncle bought a 50" pioneer plasma for us.

The thing is, it's not the size of the TV - it's the quality of the picture.

I learned the hard way that research on image quality was essential first, and that it was better to have a smaller TV with a good quality picture, than a bigger TV with a poorer quality picture.
