They're not necessary bad, although my experience with Orion-made products is absolute dysmal (went through 12 defective Orion-made Toshiba products in one year). 
Just more cheaper parts used in the TV when building.

My most recent purchase is a Toshiba DVD/VCR combo from Costco that only worked for five minutes out from the box. Play a tape for about five minutes, then whole unit locks up (no buttons respond), unplug it, replug it back again, and now it does not power up (dead power supply). What a joke. Buying an Orion-made product is a gamble (some last for many years, some do not).

I knew if I just used Toshiba/Orion bait, he would smell it instantly, and rush to recount his long sorry tales of Toshiba woes. Just as moths are drawing to the flame, Walt can not resist repeating his Tales of Toshiba. I guess you could title it: A half-baker's dozen.
