So, wonder what is really "TV Dinner" ? Something you eat while watching TV ? or a dinner that ads shown on TV ?

The TV Dinner that gave us Tucker Carlson.

“In 1979, Carlson's father married Patricia Caroline Swanson, an heiress to Swanson Enterprises, daughter of Gilbert Carl Swanson and niece of Senator J. William Fulbright. Though Patricia remained a beneficiary of the family fortune, the Swansons had sold the brand to the Campbell Soup Company in 1955 and did not own it by the time of Carlson's father's marriage.” — Wikipedia
