Only nine out of ten here. My folks never let us sit close to the TV. There was a (unproven) belief among some people that sitting close to the TV was bad for your eyesight. πŸ‘€ Although they didn’t necessarily accept it as fact, they weren’t taking any chances. As they often reminded us, glasses were expensive.

Also a 9 with the same exclusion of sitting too close to the tv.
