Oddly enough, that's just the effect my new, long-anticipated flat screen LCD 
TV gives.
Having been used to Sony Trinitron screens for years and years before moving 
to a Panasonic LCD, I was spoiled.
I didn't know how spoiled I was!
Take it from me, LCDs are nowhere *near* the equal of a CRT...
The "crispness" is gone.
Everybody on screen looks like those Stepford kids recently shown as examples 
of the cartoon effect photographic image manipulation.

Granted, I now have double the resolution, what with Hi Definition® (1080) 
broadcasting, and the new, larger screen size is great.
Watching the football (soccer) matches the last week or so on wide screen has 
been wonderful! However...

If I had my 'druthers, and was wealthy, I'd arrange for a new and larger house 
to house a 32" CRT Sony.
Of course I'd need a crane to lift it thru my skylight roof opening, but boy, 
the PICTURE quality I'd gain back!
