If you are watching these shows from a digital converter box, I am not surprised about the 3.58 MHz burst. Digital TV almost certainly does not have any provision for color/B&W identification, and the inexpensive boxes would likely not make use of such a signal anyway. If you are receiving low-power NTSC OTA signals, it still does not surprise me, just a bit less though.
