He is correct tho. Unless we are talking about some more expensive tvs. Ironicaly more expensive tv dont last as long Beacuse they have more cutting edge experimental technology ( early OLEDs for example ).

Maybe if you're paying the Samsung/Sony/LG premium

But the cheap brands most people buy like TCL and Hisense, cut corners everywhere they can so that they can hawk a 75" "4K" TV for $400. They usually die in < 5 years and it'll probably be, at least one of, the LED backlight strips. They're damn near almost made to be "disposable"

The joke in the comic is that they are playing a wii game without the controller straps. The kids will probably whip the controllers into the TV, breaking it.
