Connections, Connections 2, and Connections 3 are gold-mines of information. The information density is incredible, and it's enjoyable to watch.
The show holds up very well given it's age, but the image quality is especially difficult to watch on modern LCD screens.
- lqet 6y agoI wonder if it was produced on film. This would allow a remastering, similar to Seinfeld [0]. [0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFIrsitJW5M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFIrsitJW5M
- royjacobs 6y agoIn that era typically only things recorded in studios would be video, the rest would be film. So Connections could certainly he remastered, and I hope the BBC does so. Some of their older documentaries, like Ascent of Man, already got that treatment.

- sp332 6y agoI think it was on film because it was released only a year later in the US. That was very difficult for shows on tape because of the 50Hz-vs-60Hz difference in video formats.
- xbar 6y agoI strongly agree.
