Wow.. just wow... I mean, as much as HD was a jump over SD, 120hz pole vaults over 60hz ! Formula 1 looked *insane*, I could see the grain in the asphalt on the track. Football looks incredible, all that live stuff is wonderful...
Only problem is: so does the rest ! The TV series are currently ruined for me. Cute actresses look like pimply teenagers with 2 layers of bad makeup... the "TV series" sheen is gone, the shows now look "too real" like they were shot in my living room with my camcorder or something ! I don't know how to explain this, or why, but as good as this is on live sports, it's awful on TV series, way too vivid - something that visually looked like a movie now looks like a soap opera, in terms of image perception... Anyone else experienced that ?

I got a 120Hz Samsung a couple of years back. I noticed the same thing (look "too real"....now looks like a soap opera). It took a little getting used to, but I don't even notice any more. You'll get used to it.
