Ive had my 50 inch LG for almost 3 years and 2 weeks ago the picture went out. I did notice in the last month that if I had it on one channel for a period of time that the picture would disappear, and so I would change the channel and come back to the channel that I was watching and the picture would come back on. Im very disappointed and will not buy an LG again. Ive had a Vizio for about 5 years and have never had a problem and just bought another Vizio to replace this LG
