If you're old enough, you may remember that TVs haven't always been widescreen.Yup, once upon a time, the aspect ratio was more 4:3 than 16:9, meaning the content was filmed with this space in mind.Since TVs have changed shape and size, content producers wanting to use old shows and films have had to edit the footage to fit - either by adding pillarboxing (black bands on the sides of the frame) or by zooming out on the original negatives to add in the extra frames.
