The video quality is beyond terrible for the time
This looks like it was filmed in the 60s. I had to double check and make sure I was watching the correct show and it did indeed say the 90s. Is this what Brits thought of as acceptable quality? Were they unaware of how much better American television looked?
Also, Netflix has this show cropped to 16:9 so it looks zoomed in which is super annoying. They should leave shows originally filmed in 4:3 alone, unless they can make it 16:9 without cropping it (like what they did with The Wire).
