How does Panasonic keep doing it? All of their televisions are getting Recommendations! All I know is, when I'm able to afford a new television, I'm definitely looking in Panasonic's direction!
Not *every* model is outstanding - we would always advise reading reviews of the exact model you are considering, as performance can vary even within the same family. That's true of all manufacturers really.
Truthfully, there are excellent TVs from a range of manufacturers these days but for me, Panasonic and Samsung stand out as consistent producers of highly desirable displays. And it's not just us that thinks so either :)

Uh oh, Ginormo has a point...
"Not *every* model is outstanding"
True, but a lot of them seem to be. If you look at TR's filtering, All of their Panasonic TV's minus 3 have a score of eight or above. They don't seem to be as inconsistent as Toshiba's range of 2007. But then you did address that.
Even though I'm being told by EVERYONE that LCD is the way to go, I'm still going to buck the trend and get a plasma. TR mentioned in their 2007 awards that the plasma "haters" were all very wrong when they looked at the Pioneer Kuro. Those Kuros are certainly sexy! Wish I could I afford a Kuro...
Well this telly has a (42/37 - 1) * 100 = 13.5% bigger screen across the diagonal & so design score must therefore be 13.5% higher; 1.135 * 7 = 7.95 or 8/10 rounded up - simple!
It's very true that all the "pub experts" are happy to tell everyone that plasma is dead, and LCD is a far better bet. Believe me when I say, they are totally wrong!
I have two TVs in my house and they're both plasmas, one's a Panasonic and the other a Pioneer. I can honestly say that right now there is no finer TV than Pioneer's Kuro range - if you can afford one, you shouldn't think twice.
However, not everyone can afford a Kuro, and the Panasonic plasma's offer superb value, as well as great image quality that will put most LCDs to shame. If you're serious about your movies, but don't have enough cash for a Kuro, Panasonic's latest plasmas are definitely worth considering.
Of course the really interesting bit is the fact that Panasonic will be manufacturing Pioneer's panels from now on, and that should result in some technology sharing too. I seriously doubt that Panasonic wants to play in the very high-end market where Pioneer lives, but some of that Kuro technology could filter down into more affordable Panasonic screens.

Probably because LCD is the "safer" option. It seems to be the norm. Only a few plasmas in my Futureshop, but wall to wall LCD. Maybe it's the marketing? Too bad, because people are missing out on some really good high def imagery! And soon I won't be one of them!
