Well that's good that it's already been fully re-mastered for streaming and this is just a formal physical release of those remasters. Whenever I see a new Blu-ray release for SD content these days I worry that they'll just run it through an AI upscaler and try to sell that. Or worse, they'll "re-master" it like they did on Buffy and and Angel.

I have the DVDs of Buffy and Angel — what did they do to the remasters?

@asperoth Also many of the special effects were not re-done, but simply scaled up from the regular versions to HD. As you can imagine, that’s not a good look.
