Looks more like a rear projection set.

Ah yeah, that's what I was thinking of when I said plasma. Although typically those were much bigger than the Simpsons could afford.

I'm sure Homer could fall for a con and buy a rear projection off a truck.

The picture.on those things was horrible compared to CRTs. I don't understand why anyone bought one. Must have tapped into that American attitude of "bigger is better even if it's shit". Same reason we keep Texas around.
