Which TV brand is the most reliable in your experience?

Could be the case, but it's never worth to not ask your opinion.

With the exception of (e the higher end) Sony, Sharp, Vizio, and Samsungs you're basically getting all the exact same parts just crammed in a different plastic casing.
Even with the brands I specified, if you're not buying the top tier, there's a chance it was made by third-party and is your standard component junk TV.
The panels, the t-cons, main boards, everything... basically made by the same few companies and crammed in different plastic cases for Black Friday sales.
Somebody else identified the capacitors as the main failure point and they were 100% correct. But the wrinkle there is that as long as you have your TV connected to a legitimate surge protector, not a crappy power bar, you will mitigate that concern.
