Flat Screen Recommendations: 50 to 60 inch


I'll consider any option, LCD, Plasma, "internet" TVs, etc.
Just want something that will look good out of the box. We watch DVD movies, stream from a Roku box, and news and a few stupid shows from cable TV. Will get less than 10 hours a week of play time. Interested in all opinions and experiences with current models.
Thank you in advance.

I watched the Superbowl on a friend's Samsung LED backlit LCD set. It was excellent for the game, but we then watched Glee and the picture was just plain weird and, I think, wrong. It had that videotape quality that the soap operas have, or used to have back when. My friend said they got used to it, but I'm not sure I'd want to. Don't buy one of these sets until you spend some time watching a variety of programming on it and are comfortable that you like the way the picture looks. For me, I'll stick with plasma.
Dont skimp on size, my viewing distance is about 10 feet and we love our Samsung 63 inch Plasma, the Panasonic plasma viera line are highly recommended by home theater magazine's last TV review
good luck on your search.
Yea go buy a Smsung if you can put up with excess buzzing noise and a artificial picture..............great deal!
What model 60" LG plasma are you referring to...the 60PK550? I've had my 60PK550 for five months and I love it. It offers quite a bit of bang for the buck and Consumer Reports has it ranked as #3 for plasma sets in the 58"-63" range.
