32 inch or 37 inch lcd?

Question

We are looking into gettting either a 32 inch or a 37 inch lcd tv. We want to hang it on the wall eventually. Which do you think would be a better size to hang on the wall, 32 or 37? We don't want it to be too overwhelming and too big.

Answer 1

I would go even bigger with 42". Remember that some programming is still done in 4:3 format (not wide screen at 16:9) and to see it in the proper proportions you will have black boxes on the sides of a smaller picture that will look more like a 37" screen. Stretching it full width makes people look short and fat on the screen.
