In almost every case it's just the substandard copies we see today that look like crap, not the original show. I'm old enough to remember back to the early 70s, and primetime network shows always looked new, clear and flawless. By contrast, daytime reruns and old movies on local stations always looked tired and old because they were being seen on 16mm film, a format commonly distributed at the time. I really don't understand why in this day and age we still have to put up with video transfers that are markedly inferior to the original masters.
