Let's get this out of the way right now: The Vizio GV42L HDTV is a virtual clone of the Vizio L42 HDTV. They're both 42-inch flat-panel LCDs, they have nearly identical feature sets, their image quality is basically the same, and the difference in cost is $100 as of the time of this review; the GV42L HDTV will currently run you $1,699 online while the L42 HDTV costs $1,599. The two TVs even scored the exact same rating. The differences? The more-expensive GV42L has slightly more sophisticated styling, an extra "advanced" picture control menu (which doesn't do much of anything useful), and a backlit remote.
