Those do look very fuzzy, I don't know if Amazon has an inferior copy but the SD version on Disney + looks really good:
(and season 5 is in HD since that's how it was finished back when it aired).

Are all ANGEL episodes available for streaming in true HD, or they are all upscales? Why do you say "SD version", if even Buffy aired on streaming with all its flaws is in Widescreen/HD? Weren't they shot on film?

P.S.

4m20s:


Apparently not, for ANGEL...

Note: the caps I posted were edited to be upscales... so the PQ is not the same as you would see in the official DVDs or streaming services. I wanted to highlight the framing differences.

P.S. Just found this:

All of Angel was shot on film but seasons 1-4 were only finished in SD, in both 4:3 and 16:9. The show was never remastered, unlike Buffy, so what's streaming on Disney+ is widescreen SD, but looks very good because a lot less compressed than the dvds.
Now I wish they could make uncompressed SD masters for Buffy available as well.
