Welcome to Good Mythical More. Can a TV be mounted too high? Well, hold my beer. Hold my beer. I’m about to mount a TV really high. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now we’re gonna look at photos of televisions and decide if they’re mounted too high. First we do a secret handshake. The Lord’s work, we call it. Secret handshake. Real fast, real fast, real fast. Is that part of it? No. Let’s do it again. That. That feels pretty good. I feel like that could catch on. Yeah, that’s pretty good. And now let’s do the itsy busy spider. I don’t do that. Well, it’s a handshake though. Thumb. Finger to thumb. Hmm. Go up. What, what… You’re not doing the. Well, it should be the same, right? No, it should be opposite. But I should go up. And then I go up? And then you go, and then I go up? I never did those children’s games. I was just playing with an RC truck. Ahem! The itsy, bitsy… You can do it to yourself. Spider went up the.. Alright, alright. How many of these pictures do you have? I mean, is there an internet crawling with pictures of televisions that are potentially too high? Boy, you wouldn’t believe it. It’s an entire subreddit full of these. Are these people taking pictures when they go over to old people’s homes? And I don’t mean like old people’s homes. I mean like, you go to your parents house and they’ve got their TV above the fireplace. Oh, oh. Oh, you’re hating on the above the fireplace already. That’s a, that’s a tough spot to start in. And by the way, this is just like, general cursed TV placements. Like, they’re not all, you know what I’m saying? Like, like, if you’re starting with fireplace, this, I’m starting here. And it says coming up on it. Yeah, it’s been going up. Well, you don’t want to burn the bottom of the TV. Oh, my God. Why? This is not a hospital waiting room. This is a living room. If you are thinking about installing a television, so, this is, now, correct me if I’m wrong. Yeah, because I know this. This is where you mount a television, of any size. You go to the primary place that you’re going to be watching television, and you sit down. Yep, and if you’re the tallest person in your family, look at your eye. You’re, you’re, you are the one who does this, and you sit down and you measure your eye height off of the floor And then you put the middle of the TV at the eye height on the other wall, right? Is that right? Well, it depends on what you got going on there. That’s the ideal I mean when you’re working the your eye line is supposed to be at the top of the monitor, now that’s not a television, it’s a monitor. But like, for like, ergonomic, the screen is supposed to be here. Not here. But for a television, anywhere I think, anywhere that you measure from your height, I think that right there you technically don’t want it much higher than that. If your eyes are not in the screen you don’t want to be higher than your eye line. You don’t want to have to work to see, you don’t want to grow a neck muscle. Yeah, you don’t want to be in like a — Front row at the AMC. Now can I say. That’s so high, there’s no reason to do that. Yes, but also like above the fireplace in general is an a gray area, but when you have like. Mm-hmm This is a fireplace that’s been designed with a facade that goes all the way up to the ceiling as like focal point of the room. And then this person decided, Nope. Yeah. That, I’m gonna go over that and I’m gonna let my wire hang. You can’t have hanging wires. Oh, you are right. You can’t have a cord. You can’t do that. What you can do, I didn’t see it at first, is when you’re not watching tv, you can have a screensaver that is the wall. There you go. Well, the, the picture frame TV situation is nice. It’s nice. Carney would like me to tell you, even though he has a microphone, that he has one. And he’s still pointing at himself even after I voiced it. Do you have a frame around your television? It’s one of those frame TVs. You never seen them? It’s just a TV that you got, there’s a frame, you just dial up a frame. No, it’s got a frame around it, a bezel, and it’s super thin, like the size of a photo, uh, or a painting, and there’s a whole app involved where you pay like five bucks every six months or something to have a whole catalog of like art that you can display. So you keep it on all the time and it looks like art. Oh. I’ve had people come in and be shocked to find out it was a television. Really? Really. Oh. I’m seeing that. What brand is this? Uh, it is Samsung? Yeah, Samsung. A TV as fluid as your style. Huh. I know people that had done this, like, you know, like, manually, but I didn’t realize there was somebody, like, a brand that was leaning into it. I mean, I just use, like, I have wallpaper, like, Google Image wallpaper, and then it, like, I use Chromecast, and so it becomes a screensaver, basically. So it becomes like art, but it doesn’t look like it around the edge. Let’s see. It has a texture to it. Yeah. Okay. Hmm. I like that. You can also make that on your own. I like the caption this, by the way. Just put a little building. We’ve been roasting my buddy for hours, as you should. Yeah, this is just why, why would you do that? All right. Let’s see another there. Oh God. I’m confused. Is it, I think this is, this is the POV of where you’re seated to watch that television. Cause there’s a controller on the couch there. Wow. So, did this, I think the ceiling fell. And they just continued to live there. Every time somebody comes down those stairs, it’s a little bit distracting. So the TV is hanging off the back side of the partial ceiling? Like off the balcony? How does this happen? I want to see the other walls. I know there’s gotta be a better place. I mean, at this point you should just put the TV on the ceiling and lay down to watch it. I’d rather just watch that smoke detector in front of it. Have you seen the people who do that, the, the, there’s the projectors that they’re always trying to sell you on the internet? Yeah. And there’s people. Projecting on the ceiling. Watch TV in their bed laying down. Yeah, I don’t. Anybody tried that? I think that’s nice. Are the speakers also up there? Like if you’re laying down. It’s just not good. It’s not good for, you don’t want to be watching You don’t want to orient your body like this. Like, lika a nature documentary. You know? I would fall asleep. I mean, somethin’ with a good soundtrack. Then the television falls on you. No, no, projector. The projector is projecting up, so there’s not gonna fall on you. What is that supposed to mean? Is that to me? What? No, he’s making fun of himself, for thinking that a projected image could fall on him and hurt him. Ahhh! Giant TV! Stevie, you took offense to that. I don’t take offense to anything anymore. There’s too much offense to take. Yeah, you blew my mind. You’ve taken it all. You blew my mind! That’s what, that’s what that look, that’s what my face does when my mind is blown. I don’t know what’s happening here. This is horrible. Hashtag too TV too high. We’ll see another one. Now, that was — We found the winner, boys. That swivels. It swivels. It’s got to. It swivels. Yeah. Now, it’s still too high. No, I think you need to, uh, put your head, lay down on the floor, put your head halfway into the fireplace in order to enjoy. You gotta be burning your feet. I mean, even if that thing flips down. The couch is way too low, I mean. It’s way too close. It’s way too high. In a couch like that, you’re gonna develop some back problems. This feels almost A.I, the way it’s set up. Yeah, we’re gonna bear necessities here. Well, you don’t want a television that is facing windows that presumably are south facing windows that never close. Like, you’ll never, and during the daytime, you’ll never make out any detail on that screen. Mm hmm. You just don’t need a TV in this room. Some rooms aren’t made for televisions, uh, or apparently coffee tables. Look at how thin that coffee table is. What, so the TV doesn’t hit it? I don’t know. Yeah, when the TV comes down. Like, why? This is what the Apple, uh, Vision Pro is for. Yep. You got a room like this and you still wanna watch TV. This is the only justifiable reason to have one. Maybe look into a rug, homie. Yeah, can you imagine the acoustics in there? I mean. You hear everything four times. This is sad Airbnb vibes right here. Not lovin it. Not lovin it. Next! Oh, what? So high, it went low. When they go high, we go low. Is my sister’s TV too low? Yes, ma’am. To answer your question, yes, ma’am. I’d be afraid I’m gonna do some damage to this. Right. People are gonna run into this. With like, the bar stools that are gonna go against the bar? What on earth? Now, that’s better for your posture, I think. Yeah, looking down is not bad. Looking down Like this. Yeah, you just look. People look, watch streams like this. So I think sister, I mean, you could lay on the floor down, there is like a little… Dog bed down there, you could lay on and just get good look at that television. Maybe that’s, maybe the TV’s just for the dogs. For the dogs. I think that’s what it is. A lot of people leave on TV for the dogs. This is dog height TV right here. My dogs don’t really pay much attention to what’s on the TV. That’s a weird place for a. But according to this, this is the only place we could put it in her apartment living room. I’m gonna take your word for it. I mean, some, some rooms just don’t need TVs. It’s just, you gotta go without. Yeah. Ah, that, that is just wild right there. And you talk about, I mean, typically when you’re watching television, somebody walks in front of it, it’s annoying. Is it less annoying when it’s just their legs and crotch? I think I could walk in front of this TV and you wouldn’t see anything. Right, you could kind of see. I mean, like, you wouldn’t see me. I think I could step over it. Maybe I’d, I’d see one leg. But if you put anything on the coffee table, it’s gonna be in the way, right? You can’t, you need a lower coffee table. Don’t put the popcorn on the coffee table. I think you gotta go full Japanese living room here, Which is? Uh, no, no, no, no. American furniture. They just sit on the floor. Oh. Mm-hmm Next. Ooh, now this is nice. This is like a seafood restaurant. Like, the game is on, you know. Like, the only thing you can watch that high is like a sporting event while eating. Yeah, well, I mean, when you got that good of a view, do you wanna look at a television? No. Yeah, but Titanic’s not out there in the ocean. It’s on the screen. Ironically, it is out there in the ocean. I…. And see, what, what do you think about the fact that, like, the lighting, like, your thing with, like, if the television was on the other wall, there’d be so many reflections from the sunlight that you couldn’t see the screen. Well, what about this scenario, in terms of light? Well, it is an advantage there. Not really, though, because your eyes are adjusting for the bright. Yeah, you’ll never see it. You’ll never, I don’t think you’ll see the television. You gotta, you’ll have to turn the brightness up on that television to like, a hundred, if it’s supposed to be on fifty, and it will look horrible. Again. You don’t need a television. Sometimes you just don’t want them. Couldn’t you just have a television on a stand, like in the corner? I mean, can’t you? Or even on the, uh, the, In between the two windows slash doors where it comes down there, right? Just have it like mounted right there. Or no TV, when you got a house that beautiful don’t TV it up. That’s ugly, that ain’t working and it is too high. How about a VCR cart? There you go VCR cart, roll it in. Yeah, roll it in when you need it. Yeah, that’s the solution to a lot of these issues. Now there’s a lot of people, you can buy the thing where you pull on the television and then it comes down. So it’s on, it’s on it’s, it’s on like arms that go and that is something you could think about here. Cause at least it would be the right height during the night when you wanted to watch it. Cause you could watch it at night. Yeah, that’s what you need right there. You need something that comes down from the top. Two arms. Mm hmm. Or everybody just has Google glasses. Yeah. Remember those? Whoa! Here’s us. We made it on TV too high. Here’s us, Rhett. Never really understood why my ex girlfriend got so upset with me until I found this sub. The scale, is this, this TV is four inches across? I can’t really. I think they, they mounted an iPad on the wall. I love the fact that the box for the television is still there. So they’re still, it’s not too late for them. This is just attempt number one. But that wall is asking for a projector. Yeah. Not an 18 inch television. Yeah, that’s just sad. I mean, I could barely tell that that was us. But trust me, I could tell. I appreciate the fact that this post has nothing to do with us at all. It’s just about the TV. I wonder if anybody in the comments made any, like, GMM related quips, like, is it too high? Is it too hot? Oh, that would be, that’s a deep cut. I got the tea on the comments. Go all, go all the way up. Uh, Comments turned into a debate. Not about the TV. You know what I’m saying. Oh. A political debate? About what? About whether or not this show is worth watching? Mm hmm. Could I read them? Yeah. Oh, now Carney can talk. I am literally watching GMM right now. Came here to say this. Genuinely forgot about that show. That’s okay, it sucks now. You suck now. He always did. What? I used to love GMM, but around the time Link got that new modern haircut, it feels like the show changed. Could just be me, though. Modern? I got a modern haircut? I’ve been meaning to tell you that your haircut’s too modern. And it really is the reason the show sucks. I’ve had this haircut for a long time. Yeah. Keep going, Carney. The show’s been sucking ever since. Um, let’s talk about that. Okay. Good Mythical Morning, dude. You know what time it is. Ah! Time to lower your television. Fellow Mythical Beasts! That was a good episode. LOL, back when Rhett had short hair. Watch Good Mythical Morning on a TV like this is insane. And that’s the end. Okay. Okay. Wow. Wow, and that cord just dangling down. There. That’s how you turn it off and on. They must have just had something mounted up there and then they, they just replaced it with a television. I don’t know, great taste in content. Used to be better than it is now. But, um, yeah, lower your telev– get a bigger television. And continue to watch us. Next! Maybe a tad too high. Oh, see this thing is, this is a weird room, first of all. You think? Look at all the freaking mirrors. And crosses. So is there only two crosses and just a lot of mirrors? I think it’s, there’s two crosses, one television, and eighteen mirrors. What in the world? Wow, that’s, you can get every angle. Now the swivel, the swivel nature of that, and you would be in bed maybe lying down. I think I’m jealous of the mirrors. I mean. It’s basically the top half of an octagon, for a, Oh yeah. A full dome. Look at that. I wonder if there’s a camera on the bed that’s been fed to the television from another angle. So where there’s not mirrors, you get a feed. That’s what I’m thinking. That’s what I’m hoping for. It’s one of those cameras on the end of a stick that Chase has sometimes. I gotta say, if this were an Airbnb and I showed up and went to this bedroom, I don’t know if I could sleep in that. Now, if I owned it, I’d sleep in it, but I just don’t know. It’s a little too, uh. Grayscale? Kinky slash religious. You know what I’m saying? Kinkligious. Yeah. But the TV’s not too high. It’s got a good angle on it. You’re laying down. I think this is better than what we were talking about about the television being up on the thing. No qualms with the TV placement here. Alright. And finally, that’s in another dimension. I love the fact that there is a picture where the television needs to be. Or is that a window? No, it’s a picture. It’s a picture. That’s a window to a French street. Okay, it is. You’re right. That is just a wild idea. What? How? Wife and I think it’s perfect viewing angle. Laying in bed, says the person. You couldn’t see the picture if you were laying in bed? I mean, this is. I could buy that, almost. I mean, they’re, I don’t even see the bed. They’re a long ways away. Well, sit up in bed a little bit. Don’t watch TV in bed. It’s not a good habit. You know what?
