Query: What's the deal with the color?

While I agree that this miniseries is awesome, this Special Edition DVD set pales (literally) in comparison with most other releases. My wife and I had worn out the tapes we made when the series first aired on A&E;, and have since burned through the subsequent VHS official release, and most recently have been enjoying it on the first DVD release.(...)the color/tint/brightness are all washed out. There is too much contrast in the color, bringing the lights and darks to extremes. The hue of the color is also waashed out, a little too bleak to enjoy Ms. Bennett's rosy cheeks or Mr. D'Arcy's walk from the pond...The widescreen aspect is great; it does add a bit of grandeur to the scenes, but the freaky color has us put off. Maybe if you've never seen this before, this edition would seem ok, but we feel a bit let down by the results.
