The "I Love Lucy" re-runs on Hallmark channel show the slight green tint of the prints, which helped accent the contrast when run in B/W camera chains. I used to turn off the chroma, but it now I don't care about it. I agree that some B/W prints are very sharp, and some are still as entertaining as when first shown.
I'm now looking for a decent 21 inch B/W set, mid to late 50s, to add to the collection so I can view B/w material without using a color set. An in-law has a 1957 RCA in his barn, but the CRT has to be OK, or no deal lol.
