I borrowed a Samsung player (recent build) and had 5th E running.
A friend of ours saw it and commented over and over how great it looked. Which I thought was funny since it is commonly regarded as the worst looking BD disc.
In any case, I am not sure if it is the NR circuit or my CRT TV is forgiving but it looked hell of a lot better than the time I saw it in Fry's playing on a Samsung LCD TV.
I remember it looking pretty damned bad before and on my set up it looks quite good.
I will try to get a chance to compare it to the broadcast. For House of FLying Daggers, the BD was about even with the broadcast in clarity and beat it hands down for lack of artifacts in the action scenes.
