Working backwards from now: today's flat screens go on the wall or on anything that's got 12″ of depth. TVs accept get like statement art–the focal point of a room.

The 1990s through 2000s bubble back TVs popularized big amusement centers with compartments to hold the VCR or DVD players, video game systems, DVDs and VHS tapes and giant cable boxes. These originally expensive pieces of furniture are now readily available at charity shops, priced correct to exist reinvented into play kitchens or puppet theaters.

1960s and 1970s TVs  came in sizes from tiny portables to huge furniture consoles. In between the extremes was a modestly-sized fix that came with a simple wheeled stand and then it could be moved to get ameliorate reception from your rooftop antenna or your set-pinnacle rabbit ears.

1960s TV stands are ofttimes institute lurking nigh at the dorsum of basements (and yes, sometimes with the Telly which hasn't worked in xl years even so on it). TV stands are one of the things that get kept because "it might be useful." Now that more boomers are downsizing, information technology's pretty common to detect an one-time TV stands being released into the wild, set "free" on the curb.
