wow, you like them high.....our living room could probably be ok with a 65 but I would not go any bigger.....in the 2 bedrooms we have a 40" in each and just got rid of the cable boxes in those rooms. Have two ROKOs and we get everything we would want.
Can't remember the last time we watched TV in our bedroom.
I just like how flat against the wall this is.

Almost bought one of those a year or so ago but decided on a 55" Sony Bravia 4k OLED instead. Some don't have the big room for anything larger. 55" is perfect for our room.

Let me guess. You like sitting in the front row at the theater.

Probably won't be paying money for something the size of a window when I can just pull back the curtains. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Your money, your wall.

But I do like the way a whole wall is turned into a nature mural in science fiction games. That would be a bit harder for me to resist.

I don't want anything. The OP asked a question, I answered it.

Can't say I recall asking you anything. Unless you have the turrets syndrome or your last name is Buttinski that's some odd behavior. Learn to act that way from television? <- That's a question

I just find it laughable when people come into a conversation stating they've not done this or done that for years when others are talking about doing or having stuff. Do you feel you have to announce you've not had a TV for years and insinuate that people who do CHOOSE to have a TV are somewhat inferior to you? Do you want a medal for your accomplishment?

No, I didn't learn how to act from TV. I've learned over the years to call out assholes when I see them.

No but I may be trying to help them see they don't need that to live a better life and be happy. If showing that I care about others in that way makes me an asshole oh well, at least I tried. I'll leave you guys to your couches now
