I have a 2 year old Panasonic PT 53TW 52inch HD Ready TV. It is has Direct Tv hooked up. Yesterday it started looking very weird 4 different visions. We tried our DVD Player and rewired the Tivo box. I bought the extended warranty and I am ready to tell them it is a crappy TV. I would love for this to be unrepairable. I Have had 2 tube 36" tube tvs that have better pictures. This thing cost me $2000 with the Warrarty. Any Suggestions?? The picture has been really bad and makes everyone look like big people. I have not liked it at all. a
I just ordered a Direct TV HD Reciever and If it does not look like the TV's I saw yesterday at the store. I will keep calling them. Thanks for your help

It sounds like you may have a couple of defective convergence IC's, and maybe a couple of resistors. A fairly easy repair. Since you already have a warranty on the set, I would have it repaired and let the company know you haven't been too pleased with the picture quality all along. They may be able to tune it up a bit after repairing it to really make it shine for you. Panasonic usually makes pretty good sets, you could do a lot worse with some of the other brands out there.
