    I just put ce jour and was marked wrong. Is it a bit pedantic?

      Is la télé not acceptable?

          No, sur means: on top of the television.

            And how about "dans la television"? I don't understand why you use the "à"

            Wouldn't it be "vus" if vous is plural?

              "Vous" can be "you all" (2nd person plural) but it is also used as a more formal way of saying "you" (2nd person singular)

              Here, it is singular

              Please explain ce jour-la over against cet jour.
