The grain structure of the 35mm film is preserved, giving the image a textured, cinematic quality that feels distinct from the soap-opera look of later seasons or cheap upscales.

Viewing these episodes in 1080p allows the viewer to appreciate the practical effects and stunt work. In the age of CGI, seeing a real Trans Am jump a real ramp in high definition is a visceral thrill.
