I always thought they should have kept them even for just the safety video but AA took a different turn when it came to entertainment (which I don't hate BTW, those DL screens and huge under seat boxes are the worst and usually don't work to begin with). Anywho, good memories of the pre-merger AA.
Spot on there and speaking of the B737-823s had had the CRT Fold down screens in domestic first class you go through the small gap to reach the restrooms. I did that on LAX-EWR while my seatmate had a laptop with him using the seat AC supply.
