Some brands...

I had an old Hitachi that was my first TV as a young guy, lasted well over 20 years. My 35" Sony lasted a long time as well. That's old tube tech however.
New stuff...
Our 50" Samsung plasma is old and still kicking. One very faint red line down the far left side, but still with us. Next we bought a 65" Haier brand TV a few years back. Had been told that they were very popular in China, good quality. Bad move. I think it lasted about 1 day after warranty, done. Which was sort of OK, as the minute we plopped it down we looked at each other... not big enough.
Our 75" LG is fine so far, hasn't been long.
