A bad HV rectifier tube would cause no high voltage, resulting in no light on the screen. A weak tube would cause low HV, resulting in a dim, poorly focused image and /or blooming (image size changes with brightness).

BTW, bad capacitors can cause all kinds of symptoms (depending on what capacitor is bad in what circuit), not just a hum.
