If you look at the first season of "Barney Miller", you'll see poor camera
convergence, and slight color shifts between the cameras. And this was in

Look at the early shows of Star Trek: The Next Generation. They were
lit and photgraphed as if they were films. There are many scenes where
there is action in the shadows.

You would have seen what was happening if you were watching it on film,
on TV it was just a grayish blur.

If I remember correctly, they were shot on film.
