The NCAA Division I basketball championship games are here—Michigan and Louisville battle tonight on CBS, with tip-off at 9:23 p.m. ET; the women's final between Louisville and Connecticut on ESPN begins at 8:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday. If you're a hoops head and want to get the best TV picture for the finals, remember that televisions don't always get shipped with optimal settings for home viewing. To get the best out of your set for the games or any other viewing, tweak the picture settings.
Our lab testers adjust each set we test. In our video (above), they take you step by step through setting up your own TV to ensure the most natural, lifelike picture. Don't be too concerned if you screw things up: Almost all TVs have a button that will reset the TV to its default settings if you need a do-over.
For more tips on TV watching, read our story, "Take Your TV-Watching Experience to the Next Level." And if you're thinking of getting a new set, check our TV buying guide and Ratings.
