Star Trek (Both Original And Next Generation)

The answer to the OP's question is not that obvious. There are many factors to consider.

The OP says that he has a 4:3 TV.

1) Is the TV an SDTV or HDTV? Yes, there were HDTVs with 4:3 dimensions.

2) Does the OP have a Blu-ray player that allows him to change how a video signal is sent to the TV? Some BD players let you choose between widescreen (i.e. the player is hooked up to a 16:9 TV) or "letterboxed" (i.e. the player is hooked up to a 4:3 TV).

3) Depending on what option the OP picks in Part 2 and depending on whether or not the video signal is flagged for playback in a 4:3 TV, a Blu-ray of a movie/TV show in 1.33:1 may fill up the screen or may have black bars all around.

For a long while, my parents had a Blu-ray player hooked up to their old 4:3 SDTV. We were able to watch 1.33:1 programs, such as Casablanca, w/o black borders. You just have to get the right settings for your set-up.
