I do wonder how noticeable any of it is when you're watching it, as opposed to still frame snapshots. I might have to watch an episode out of curiosity.

I watched Daft Punk's Interstellar 5555 AI remaster when it was in theaters recently. Granted this is an anime, not live action. I think the source footage they used was probably standard definition, but overall I'd say it was a net negative experience. There were time it would look good but when it looks bad, which is often (particularly in the background or on small objects) it's incredibly distracting

To put it another way, the bad had a bigger impact to me than when it looked good. But then again, this is an anime and is probably pretty low frame rate especially compared to sitcoms which from what I recall probably run around 60p, so it might look better

Do you know those videos where they put a single frame of scary face as a jump scare prank? It's very quickly flashes, so you see enough to be scared, but not enough to understand what's happening and make sense of it. That much. It's visible that much.

Have you watched the show? Just checking

Not this specifically, but I doubt it's different from all the other videos made with the same technology
