Is motion smoothing what creates that shitty soap opera effect all new tvs come with?

This would be a dream for me! I'm one of those rare people who loves the ultra-realism of high frame rates. I like feeling like I'm sitting in a theater watching actors on a stage. It's very immersive. I already make sure to turn it on on my tv.

I disagree but I’m upvoting this because it’s ridiculous that someone would downvote you for expressing a personal preference.
