GSN-weird film look?
« on: July 10, 2012, 12:52:26 PM »
Hey everyone,

Has anyone noticed since yesterday, that GSN has a weird fake film look?  Not sure why this is, but figured maybe it was just a Comcast issue.

If anyone else seeing the same thing?

I notice it especially on $25K Pyramid (except that I have Charter). During the second game, it switches to the "film look" and back to the smooth, natural videotape look.

I hate it with a burning passion. It reminds me of what BCI did to The Best of Password DVD, and what Shout! Factory did to S7 of All in the Family.

I suggest you're giving it WAY too much emotional involvement, then.

We have Cox in this area (snicker), but I noticed a filmy look on the TBS HD feed of later "Fresh Prince" episodes (season 6). The eps. from the first two seasons still look normal.

It could be a oddity with compression or analog to digital conversion.

Because it's such an atrocity more heinous than war or starvation.

Get an f-ing grip.

Know what's funny? Nothing is ever measured with this guy. It is always an extreme of one or another.

To put it quite simply, are you saying that I complain about one thing, and then complain another?

quite simply
When somebody puts the words "quite" and "simply" in a sentence, I look askance at it, as if the sentence will be of dubious quality.

No, I'm saying that your complaints are loud and vociferous and on things that really don't deserve that level of consternation.

Are you seriously asking that with a straight face?

Allow me to pose a more beneficial and sane question:

Has there ever been a time since 12/1/94 that this channel hasn't been wonky on the tech side?
