They used to call TV sound "the poor relation" some time ago, but if anything, it's got worse in the super slim models of today.

If you care a lot about sound quality you wouldn't be using TV speakers in the first place. I for one am glad they stopped wasting space for junk I will never use.

I suppose another factor is that more people do buy the soundbars and surround sound systems now for TVs. Not much point building in fantastic speakers when they'll just get disabled

have a TV and I have several surround sound systems.
