Are lcd tv,s actually sharper than conventical tv,s?

I have just taken back an lcd samsung 40" tv because it has a poorer picture than my old analoge tv.The picture was fuzzy to say the least.Are lcd,s suppost to be better or was mine faulty.They sell lcd,s saying they are really sharp,is this a fact.And are all lcd,s in wide screen or can you buy them in other formats,thanks,SH-S.

Answer:
i bought a westinghouse LVM-42W2 42 inch lcd and it cleans up the analog signal alot it looks better than my analog tv thats for sure but, i do have a HD cable box. and the HD picture is great. it has 2 dvi and 1 hdmi 2 component for your HD connections but it is considered a monitor because it doesnt have a tuner built in and the price i paid for it was only $1400 back in september. as far as i know big lcds are widesceen you can find small lcds that are 4:3. My brother has a 40 inch samsung and I have to say I think that samsung leaves alot to be desired in cleaning up the analog signal. I am happy with the westinghouse, for price and picture and all the connections. Its not name brand but its my second HDTV and I am very pleased with it. They have a bigger 47 westinghouse at bestbuy for $1900 so check it out. you will like it better than the samsung. Good luck
If you are on cable, and if you didn't get up-graded to an HD/Digital cable box, the picture would be lousy. If the TV is just Digital, you only need the digital box, but HD needs HD signal.
