It's funny since I'm currently watching ''A&E Intervention'' on Netflix which is basically old episodes from season 1 and 2 (2005 and 2006), besides the show being in 4:3 format I just can't help to notice that all TV's shown in the episodes are old CRTs, also all cell phones are regular nokia/motorola non-touch screen devices.
