Also, if season 1-4 were previously released in 4:3 and seasons 5-9 in 16:9, will these aspect ratios carry forward to the BD release? Would they be able to go back to the early seasons and change them to 16:9?

I'm sure that Fox will keep Seasons 1-4 in 1.33:1 since the show was composed for this aspect ratio and was never "protected" for the 16x9/1.78:1 aspect as it was not a big issue for them. When they made "Fight The Future," the shows producers changed their minds and composed for both 16x9/1.78:1 and 1.33:1 aspect ratios.
If they do recompose these shots then we would end up with the Hogan's Heroes effect where the headroom is unnecessarily too tight even when it changed from 1.78:1 to 1.66:1.
