You know what was great about the era of CRTs? We didn’t know what we were missing. If you look at almost every 70s/80s scifi movie depicting the future decades from then, and there is a computer display of some sort, it will be a CRT. Even inside vehicles.
Star Trek is the only one where I saw flat panels (LCARS terminals). AND they were touchscreens.
Back to the Future 2 had 16:9 flat screen TVs that were wall mounted. It’s one of only two things it got right about the future, the other being that Japan would still be using fax.
