I have to through my 2 cents in about old tvs in movies. Lets say its 1968 in some movie. Over in the corner is a 1986 toshiba b/w 12" tv. Dont you hate that! The prop guys were way off on that one! Everyone thinks thats what tvs were like in 1968.... NO!!! Then again, how many people really care? The show wonder years is a perfect example of flawed incorrect props for the time period. The kitchen tv is some 1980s peice of junk b/w. Isnt the time period in that show around 1970 or so? I also remember seeing an incorrect era tv in forrest gump. It was in a bar and the bar tv was some 1979 magnavox and it was supposed to be 1972! One other, I was working on my 72 zenith color when I had it on. Friends was on and one of the characters in the show was filping the channels with a space command clicker He was tuning channels with a sc500 remote on a non sc 1958 bug eye zenith portable! Funny too, the tuner didnt turn no noise from the tv but the channels changed! Wonder if harry poster is converting ultrasonic remotes to infareds now
Im always keeping an eye out for vintage tvs in newer movies. I must say, I find many to be wrong or those cannibalized harry poster color conversions.
