Even though the early seasons of The X-Files were rendered in a 4:3 ratio, it was shot on high quality film with a generous "TV safe zone" margin. So now that it has been re-scanned into 16:9 high definition, all you are missing from the crop is about 10% of the original vertical image. You also gain more image horizontally. Later seasons of course were originally made for the 16:9 ratio. The transfer is sharp and gorgeous, sound mix is excellent. This blu-ray edition breathes new life into the show.

As a Blu-ray it's no better than my DVD set except for the 1:78.1 aspect ratio and that's the main reason I'm replacing the old DVD Standard 4X3 full frame. The process of developing this set into Blu-ray disc was very poor and I compare these to Season 2 Blu-ray set which are absolutely incredible.
