One classic example being the Babylon 5 TV show... They thought ahead enough to film all the live action in widescreen, but all the CGI was done in 4:3 for expense and rendering time.
Looked fine on TV in the 90s, not so much on DVD/Blu Ray. But short of re-doing all the CGI from scratch, not much else they can do.
I feel like x-files is like that too. It mostly looks great on Blu-ray but the CGI shots don't hold up lol
The new HD version available on streaming is an HD 4:3 scan of the film the episode masters were finalized to.
