Wow, my friend's TV just failed. We cracked it open this past weekend and we found a busted cap that looks just like those. Manufacture date would be mid-2000s, probably 2006-ish. I wonder if they were from one of those bad batches. Crazy coincidence to learn about this now.

Edit: Hm, maybe not: """With a typically shortened life span of about 1.5 to 3 years for the failing capacitors, from mid-2003 up to mid-2006, the last of the bad capacitors should have failed by 2007. Commentators on the Internet often predicted the year 2007 would be the end point for "bad capacitors"."""
