Default Large TV's

I have always thought large TV's to be a bit of a chav thing. While the wifes' car was being MOT'ed we went into Currys.
Wow the clarity of the large TV's was amazing but I was concerned that what was shown on the TV, was specific to make the TV look better then it may be when watching "BBC". One video made the city it was showing look 3D, truly amazing

Now home, if I hold a rule up at arms length, top to bottom our screen is about 2 3/4 inches. Looking on the internet for what size screen it varies, one site reckons distance from screen in inches divided by 2, another at at 96 to 108 inches a 75 inch TV. The TV should on one site take between 30 and 40 degrees of your vision.
These sizes seem awfully big to me

Has the recommended size of a TV gone up over the years? What happened to the 22 ich TV?

Have you gone for "cinema" style viewing, so wide its all you can see or are you a bit more conservative.
