Any CRT or LCD TV will get burn in from a static image in a game/ TV show.
The only TVs that are safe from burn in are DLP based. (Ex Samsungs HLN DLP, Which I own the 61' of)

Keeping the contrast very low will reduce the chance burn in on a CRT or LCD TV if you can’t afford a DLP based TV.

Burn in is when a still image (i.e. health bar) is on the screen, if it’s on the screen to long it will be there forever. Like on old arcade machines.
