Have you ever hurt your neck while watching TV and wondered if it's been mounted too high? Well, you're not the only one. In fact, there are hundreds of thousands of people who discuss the subject on Reddit every day.

From breaking news to fandoms, and from memes to life's biggest questions, Reddit is a website that encourages people to discuss any subject that interests them.

The platform has over 100,000 communities, or "subreddits," that are created by users. And a subreddit about TV placement is in the top 1% of popular communities.

The community known as "TV Too High" is among the website's largest, with over 200,000 members. Here, photos of TVs in homes, hotels and other spaces are posted and often met with hundreds of comments discussing whether or not the TV has been placed at a good height.

One photo posted to the community in September 2024 showed a TV mounted above a door, with one user commenting, "Spiders on the ceiling fan have a great view."

Another photo showing a TV mounted above a staircase received over 500 comments, with one user saying, "This might be the worst one I've ever seen."

But is there a perfect height for a TV?

One user posted a guide based on advice from the subreddit. It included things like: "If when standing the TV is at eye level, IT IS TOO HIGH," and, "If the TV is angled down, IT IS TOO HIGH."

Another user posted a photo of a guide from a TV manufacturer. It said the best height for a TV when viewing while sitting down is 107 centimeters from the center of the TV screen to the floor — although some users said this was still too high!

Is Your TV Too High? Reddit Weighs In

まず初めに、ごめんなさいを言います。6話で京都の祇園祭（ぎおんまつり）の話をしていますが、「前祭（まえまつり」と言っているのは、「さきまつり」のまちがいです。京都およびリスナーのみなさん、本当にすみませんでした。間違えた私も悪いけど、知らん顔してウソ教えるハルカちゃんも悪いと思わない？ChatGPTは漢字弱いです。今回もお寺の名前が多いですが、ハルカちゃん、全部ウソ読みました。
さてさて、今回は京都に比べて人気イマイチな奈良のお話です。私は好きなんですけどね。まあどちらも夏に行くには暑すぎて、本当は対決する前に退場してもおかしくない県です。でも、夏ならではの奈良（←発音するとおもしろい！）を紹介しているので、聞いてみてくださいね。

This week’s episode is a little slower, a little softer — because I’ve been recovering from COVID. But even in moments of weakness, we can still learn. In this reflective lesson, I share a quiet story from my week in recovery and teach useful, real-life English you can use when you're sick, tired, or just in need of rest.

You’ll learn:

     - How to talk naturally about being sick in English

     - Gentle ways to cancel or reschedule plans

     - Useful expressions like “I’m on the mend” and “I’ve been resting up”

     - A mindfulness prompt to help you practice English through real-life reflection

Whether you’re under the weather or just craving a pause, this immersive episode invites you to slow down and reconnect — with English, and with yourself.

Marika me platicó sobre uno de sus comidas italianas favoritas, Parmigiana di melanzane. 
No todo es Pizza o Lasagna, Italia ofrece gran variedad gastronómica. Y algo que se comparte entre México e Italia es que no sólo es comer por comer, es todo un momento para compartir con gente cercana.
