I like the Trinitron a lot.
This page is dedicated to its appearances on film and television,
that is: the ones I know of.

music videos
Purple Disco Machine - Dopamine (feat. Eyelar)
[00:00:38] Strangely, this frame seems to have been flipped
horizontally. However, the Trinitron branding is clearly
recognizable. The monitor looks like a PVM-9040ME. Fun fact:
this model has been released in 1998 while
the video claims to be set in 1982. Amateurs!
