How do TVs ACTUALLY work?

My wife Izzy and I have a game that we play, which is, it's a terrible game, it's basically an instant panic attack. You point to something in the room, and you say, how does it work? I like to think of myself as a smart guy.

My wife pointed at a TV, and I said, well, easy. It's plugged into the wall, electricity goes, shoots in the wire, and it goes to screen. And electricity, it uses little numbers and it tells the screen what color to be.

Screen knows from the numbers.

It knows.

And you just really realize, like, I am a Neanderthal. I am a caveman. It's all magic. It's all magic. I have no idea what the hell's going on.
