I watch all of my shows from laptop personally (not the person you are replying to). I don't care super hard about the big screen. And it means I can do other things on my other monitors at the same time.

I like working at the living with the TV precisely because it offloads the work to a different device. So compiling and running heavy scripts doesn't affect the video playing and the reproduction doesn't compete for CPU/GPU cycles or internet bandwidth with work tasks. It's not about the big screen (though I do enjoy big screens) but more about separation of concerns.
