Description
subtitled: "Watching what the critics say is the best written, well-acted, funniest, in-touch-with-reality and intelligent show on television"

made the chair and tv, but don't know who made the stairs.

note: that's an old test pattern from the 50s and 60s. Those that grew up with cable probably haven't seen a test pattern. They would show up when a station closed down at night and it was still better programming than what's on nowadays.

Creepy scene, lighting is well done.
Nicely done image. Very reminiscent of simpler times. Funny though I bet a lot of people have never seen that T.V. screen image before to know what it is.
i get such a strong feeling of loneliness from this image. very well done.
Another nice one,great glow and perspective...love how the TV is the only furnishing!
I can remember sitting and waiting for the first program to start. There used to be one test pattern with an American Indian on it as well, I think. Appropriate TV set as well. :^)
great image , do you realy think test patern is better then whores selling there stuff disguised as dating programs? thats allmost all we see in holland at night.
Great atmosphere - reminds me of the Twilight Zone movie
incredible sense of style, technique, and theme.
Nice job, especially with the lighting. The old test pattern's good too, a good match for the old TV. (Those b&w test patters were waaaayyyy before my time though -- I just remember seeing the standard color ones sometimes on weekend mornings.)
very sharp and defined, i like the refleections on the floor, and not all that are young are unappreciative, i doubt any stations still use those old B&W screens but i've seen a few several years back, every time i would visit my grandpa and have to actually get up to change the channel and adjust the rabbit ears for 10 minutes before returning to my couch, i would usually see one late at night around 1 or 2 am when the station went off air, had to be 12-15 years ago now, and out in Youngstown, OH area, i still can see the color ones in my area in SE VA
I always confused the "test pattern" with the ever popular "get yer ass into the fall-out shelter" symbol that would also be tested on air. As a child...the proper reaction upon viewing the "get yer ass into the fall-out shelter symbol" was to bury your head in between your knees and presumeably kiss your a** goodbye!!! Thus...the reason why I always got kicked in the rear end every time the "test pattern" symbol would appear on the T.V. screen!
great lighting - love the blues in this scene!! Yeah - I still remember the times when tv stations didn't send through the whole night :-) But sometimes it would be more interesting to watch the test pattern than the actual program ;-)
That's why I don't watch TV anymore. :) Very cool image!
impressive. I like this
