When you were young, did you ever wonder what was inside the TV?* If the people you could see really lived in there, and what they did when you changed the channel or (heaven forbid!) turned it off... **
TVs are actually very like onions (well, they’re both ubiquitous and can sometimes reduce you to tears). When you peel an onion, there’s just another layer of onion underneath. And inside a TV... there’s just more TV...
* If you’re so young that TVs have always been too flat to fit anything inside, then I really don’t want to hear about it...
** A long departed predecessor to the trifle-eating cat certainly once did, and was fascinated by ads with food sliding into view.
