Things you notice when watching high-def DVDs on a high-def TV...

The main thing you notice is: people on TV have the same skin problems as the rest of us. I'm having serious "Office" withdrawal, so I've been re-watching Season 2 on DVD. Apparently NBC films its shows in high definition now, and it's amazing how much detail you can see. Steve Carell has some serious wrinkles going on. None of this was visible on our prehistoric TV. It seems the science of makeup artistry hasn't quite caught up with the HD revolution.

am I archaic to say that I am not a fan? Because I am not... I miss the way people used to look...

But not as much as I miss Dunder Mifflin...

It IS a bit disconcerting. They all look so washed out!

Looks like that writers' strike is wrapping up, though, so hopefully more shows are coming soon!
