My brother has an LG flatscreen - he seems happy with it. It is probably 5 or 6 years old by now so I would definatly say LG can make decent TVs.

As far as advice for buying a TV - one thing people often miss is if the TV they buy have the right ports for what they need - like HDMI, DVI and VGA ports and what not - if it is just for a dvd player and a cable/satelite box any TV should do but if there is also a game console and a PC things can start to get complicated. A PC can be hooked up through 3 different ports - but the image quality is greatly affected by what port you choose. Basicly though - the more HDMI ports there are the better.
