This Old House on 36-1 NOT in HD?

[Will]

Hi all,

I'm watching This Old House on 36-1 OTA, and it's letterboxed with black bars on all 4 sides, and not in HD.  It looks terrible.  I just sent an email to 'tvviewer@matc.edu' to ask them about it; we'll see if I get a response.  I'll post here should I receive anything.

Anyone know if this season is available in HD, and 36-1 just messed this one up, or is the show still not being filmed in HD?  I was looking forward to it in HD...  Oh well.

Thanks,
Will

There are a lot of shows that MPTV passes through letterboxed on 36-1 instead of in the native aspect ratio.  I don't know why that is.
