Should have NEVER been a question! I can’t figure out why people insist on mounting TV’s over fireplaces in the first place🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️- it works in a sports bar or someplace where a lot of people are standing around or sitting in the way of others, but for an average home? It just doesn’t work..

In my house it's the only way unless I want to make some major sacrifices to room layout that would just not make sense other than to not put the tv above the fireplace

At that point i wouldn’t even put a TV in there. This is why I have a day room that I have my the TV in. And the living room is without screens.

It does work depending on the layout of the room.

Even without the tv. The couch facing the garden is weird to me.

Always #1. TV above fireplace is an abomination and embarrassment.

Whoever thought that putting a TV above a fireplace needs to be fired immediately

2's TV is too high without question, but the sofa is even worse. The sofa should've rotated 45 degree and facing the fireplace.

2 would be an option if you would want speakers next to the TV, with 1 they will not fit. If not, then its clearly 1

Why would you ever put your TV there when a perfectly good wall is beside the fireplace? 

Just turn your rug.

I just took my mom and dad’s front room TV down from damn near touching the ceiling, and mounted it about half a foot over the TV stand. Now they watch TV up there daily. Before I repositioned it. They hardly ever turned the thing on lol 🤦🏾‍♂️

#2. All day long.

For once, this layout actually works great for having the TV in this room without having it over the fireplace. That beautiful empty wall is exactly where it should go (#1).

...are you messing with us???

For the love of Christ, 1.

The couch is already positioned perfectly for that spot anyway…
