Here is the current best-in-class setup for achieving 90% of that goal: Streaming compression kills quality. The fastest way to get "extra quality" is to purchase the season passes on Apple TV (iTunes), Vudu, or Amazon Prime Video in 4K where available. While the blur is present, the Gaussian blur method used in 4K releases is softer, less pixelated, and blends better with the environment than the 720p cable broadcast.
