Bacon on the teevee

[cyrano]

Somebody who understands televisions may be able to help.
I just saw an ad for the classic Rankin/Bass "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", but it's Now in Hi-Def. But.... if the original material was shot in our glorious granular lo-fi kinescoping that I grew up with, won't Hi-Def just give you glorious granular lo-fi kinescoping with more pixels per inch?

Also, lunch involves the 'heart smart' marinara.... with four strips of bacon.

I'm guessing it's the same sort of process involved in remastering or colorizing. Intelligent algorithms filling in the gaps, supplemented by human artists' interpretations.
