We are living in the Twilight Zone. Our tv in our master bedroom, which has been working perfectly for a little more than 7 years, has recently started doing some freaky things that defy logic. I turn the tv on and the picture comes on for a second, then goes blank. The sound stays on. We can change channels and the picture will come on for a second and then goes to a blank screen (not blue, but black). We turn the tv off and on and the same exact thing happens. The picture comes on for a second and then goes black.
So in an effort to test other devices, we put on the DVD player that has always been attached to the tv and see if we can get a DVD to play. The only one close by was Barney. On it went. Barney played with no problems and the picture never left the screen. With the DVD still playing, we switched the input on the remote and clicked over to regular tv. The picture stayed on! We could change channels and everything. Not a problem and it continued working like it always had.
Turned the DVD player off and the picture on the tv flashed for a second and went to a black screen. Turned the tv off and then on again, the same exact thing. Put the DVD player back on, the regular tv works again.
So incredibly bizarre. I hope Barney enjoys spinning around and around. Because he is never leaving our DVD player.
