Just got my first TV since my old vacuum tube stopped working in the early 90s. 55" Sony flat screen. It has gour fixtures for its stands: a pair that's narrow close to the centre, and a pair if you want a wide stance. I didn't mind the wide option, but I appreciated having a choice.

you bought a cheap TV on black Friday, what did you expect?
Noticed this trend like a decade ago with LG. They used to have a stand in the middle which was much better design wise.
Don’t buy TCL if you want a nice stand included.
also the Samsung manual would tell you to use the tv on a platform as deep as it's height???? wtf
That is so in case it falls then it falls onto the TV Stand not a child.
They don't expect you to do that - but too many people went 'I didn't know' right after their baby head caved in because they didn't child proof anything.
Get a board and put it beneath the thing?
Does it have VESA mount?
Most modern tvs have some kind of vesa, so you can just spend the 50 bucks on a mount, like this one.
Came across the same issue when I set up my dads new bedroom telly for him, I bodged it up with a plank on top of the dresser it was sitting on.
I'm confused why there is a cat in this photo
OP is clearly complaining that TVs are as wide as his cat.
Agree. I’m canvassing for a 65” TV and I need to include the entertainment stand in the budget because it won’t fit on the current one I have for my 43”.
That leg design is incredibly ugly as well.
