No I mean all shows today are in HD when shown on TV are they not? In fact that was the big draw of the new show - colors popped, making Hawaii look especially beautiful (minus the yellow tinge of the earlier seasons). So why would this same quality not translate to the DVDs? You were saying that on DVD the show looked as bad as the broadcast versions of the original show. Which doesn’t make sense. I would expect the show on DVD to look just as good as it was on TV. Why would it look worse? That doesn’t make sense. Unless we’re talking about some home-burned bootleg versions. But the official releases should have the same quality as was shown on TV.

I may have to rent one disc to see what you’re talking about. It doesn’t make sense that a modern show would be released with crappy video quality.
