    Maybe, but Mitsubishi sold 37 inch CRT "monitors" 20 years ago. Likely they were broadcast quality TVs.

    That should tell you something about the standard of color calibration
    of the ordinary TV monitor.

    yeah not exactly a requirement to have high colour accuracy for TVs.
    The bloods usually fake, fake tans, even the tits are silicone, CGI effects......
    I guess there's a market for most things, someone will buy into it.
    AT least it supports the tech industry and things will improve and cost less for it.
