Damn, the top one doesn’t even really look like a modern TV, either. It’s like they tried to update it while trying to do it in a way that most people didn’t notice. What a cop out.
The picture.on those things was horrible compared to CRTs. I don’t understand why anyone bought one. Must have tapped into that American attitude of “bigger is better even if it’s shit”. Same reason we keep Texas around.

It actually just looks like a pre-flat, wide-screen TV to me.
Looks more like a rear projection set.
Ah yeah, that’s what I was thinking of when I said plasma. Although typically those were much bigger than the Simpsons could afford.
I’m sure Homer could fall for a con and buy a rear projection off a truck.

Lol
Even if we take it to be a modern TV: How the hell did they manage to put a VCR on that thing?
There was a weird transition era where some flat screens still weren’t super skinny.
There were also those big ass plasma TVs and stuff.
Yea but a VCR or even a DVD still wouldn’t have fit on top
Man, you could have had a mini golf course on top of those TVs!
