Summary
Pawns sitting on a chair or bed can watch a tube television for recreational purposes. It does not matter which way the furniture faces.
The tube television has a Recreation Power of 120%. It is considered Television recreation.
A pawn must have a Sight capacity above 0% to watch television.
Analysis
Any form of television provides another form of recreation to your colony. They are useful for bed-ridden pawns in particular, as the only other option requires that another colonist talk to them. Flatscreen televisions and megascreen televisions provide more recreation power, but take up more space and power.
In general, it is not worth it to actually research television. Megascreen televisions provide stronger recreation, and are often carried by exotic goods traders and faction bases. Tube televisions can also be bought from the same sources.
