everything plugged in to the same surge protector (which I guess didn't protect the surge?) Or... somehow the sparks/shock traveled through the HDMI cable? I honestly don't know. Sparks... flicker, and the TV is gone with the power led flashing the 'my main board is fried' sequence... and my cable box doesn't want to output via HDMI and keeps freezing now.
The Wii U (and oddly enough... the external hdd as well) and everything else plugged in there seem to be just fine. Only the TV and cable box are messed up.
Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
