They probably had the motion enhancement "motion flow" or whatever frame interpolation nonsense is called in the TV turned on and set to "high". I can't stand that stuff. It not only makes a movie look like it was shot on video, but that you're watching it on videotape and the tape deck is stuck in fast forward mode. That motion enhancement stuff also blurs out a lot of what it thinks is "noise" but is really image detail. A lot of TV sets with that feature turned on will make textures like skin look like plastic.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 06-21-2013 04:22 PM                     Episode 3 was shot on video, not film  |  IP: Logged Connor Wilson Expert Film Handler Posts: 190 From: Sterling, VA, USA Registered: Jan 2011 posted 06-21-2013 05:59 PM                     Anything shot in 24 frames, video or not, doesn't look good with "Motionflow."  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

It took me forever to find the settings so I could put it back to normal. He was complaining that everything looked like a soap opera.  |  IP: Logged
