the first season is from 35mm negatives with the exception of one episode , looks like a positive , seasons 2 , 3 etc are also from 35mm negatives , however still in the dark as to why the first isn't as nice as the second , perhaps the way the films were mastered to the digital format ? again my brother says its because one is interlaced and the other progressive but why would you in 2012 / 2013 still use something that isn't as good ? maybe its what i said and its just not from a hi def master , take the star treks , the first ones on dvd were like that when you zoom up they look bad , also they didn't color correct a lot of them , then when they came out with full season sets they redid them , color corrected and now they don't look bad when zoomed and even when not zoomed they look better , then they put out the sets with the redone special effects , quality was great , then they did the right thing - made bluray sets that you could not only watch with the original effects but could select the original mono soundtracks without the added sounds and all.

by the way the get smart discs are nothing to write home about , they can look bad without zooming , i hope they improved them in later seasons.
