It differs fairly heavily from other televisions in the Sims 3 era, and is treated by Sims more like a theater screen than a television. None of the regular channels are available; instead, Sims can choose to watch an "Action Adventure", "Comedy", "Drama", "Horror", or "Romantic Comedy" movie, which will last around 45 in-game minutes (45 seconds), and will afterwards usually give the Sim a moodlet related to the genre they watched.
It is also the only television in the game to have any Decorative value at all, let alone a value of 10.
