Yep the TV in the picture is a 16:9 same as all new TVs.
An old 4:3 TV would look very pixelated compared to the cheapest new flatscreen TV. I speak from experience, we recently retired the final 2 of our old TVs.
Funny you should bring this up. It’s taken me a while but in my doddering old age I realize I prefer the size and aspects of the old 1990s-and-before televisions. The big flat screen sizes and larger than life talking heads are annoying. The heavy makeup, facial injections, and funky beards would be better at a reduced size.
Even news programs promote the anchor people more than the news stories. A smaller tv size might corral desires to be like old fashioned movie stars. You may laugh or cringe at my remarks but they are honest.
Large CRT sets are heavy and not as sharp as HD digital sets. I got rid of our last CRT TV about 20 years ago, except for a 30 year old 14 inch set in the bedroom which we rarely use.
