Best Answer

Depends on the size of the screen you're viewing and your personal viewing comfort. In the old days, it was recommended that you stay at least 6' feet away from the screen, regardless of the size of the picture tube. That was because of the potential for the picture tube to emit X-rays. IN the late 50's to early 60's, manufacturers started using `X-ray protection circuits' which would shut down the TV if it got to the point that X-rays would be emitted. With the digital TV's, it's not even an issue since the display screens are incapable (as far as I know) of emitting X radiation.

It is thought that there is no minimum distance required for watching television. It is considered more important that you take a break from watching television every 20 minutes.
