Reply to comment by shotsallover in ELI5: Why do older animated shows from the 80s/90s look darker in color than shows today? by kidwiththeglasses
Also, many shows were re-scanned from the original source files to prepare them for streaming. Particularly popular ones. Many shows were shot on actual film (especially animated ones, though "shot" is a term used loosely) which has much better color than what NTSC could display. So when they went back they took some effort to scan them "better" for modern TVs.
