Not that i'm saying it didn't happen, but the scourge of pan and scan was an actual scourge. And aside from the minor furor of FX? Disney? mangling the old simpsons 4:3 episodes for awhile that isn't generally a real problem that I've run across.

They’re edge cases, for sure, but there are studios that absolutely butchered some series to throw on whatever streaming platform. I was laid up just as the first Simpson’s marathon started on FX(X?) and got to watch those butchered episodes live. Woof.

Piracy cures all of those problems, though.

How could you tell? The first simpson's episodes were butchered right off the bat. Sure they were slightly better than what aired on the Ullman show, but that's a really low bar.

It’s pretty obvious when they crop 4:3 episodes to widescreen, plus the small cuts to the early episodes so they could fit more commercials in.
