The set was poorly calibrated. The likely suspect is that the sharpness control was turned up way too high, which is what most people do unless they use a calibration DVD or BluRay. It's also possible that the TV had a motion-smoothing feature--a lot of people fool around with its various settings to get something that looks right to them, others turn it off altogether.
