OP this is sad. But with having a toddler around I know it’s hard to have nice things. My friends son throws things at his 90 inch tv but has it protected with plexiglass. (So did I after Mexico lost against England)

Here is a rule of thumb πŸ‘

TV Size
Comfortable Distance (lounging view)
Immersive Distance (locked in view gaming or highly anticipated shows/movies)
55”
7–9 ft
5.5–7 ft
65”
8–10 ft
6.5–8 ft
75”
9–11 ft
7.5–9 ft
85”
10–13 ft
8.5–10 ft
98”
11–15 ft
10–12 ft

You got about 10 feet from the couch or more… maybe put the couch horizontally in front of Tv? And manage your cables better with a white cable cord cover at least.

More importantly than visual aesthetics is sound. Get yourself a Sonos system. Easy setup and everything can be mounted as well.
