Watching on KCOP in Los Angeles, I noticed in WWE at least twice there
were sudden shifts in color right in the middle of a shot where everything
suddenly reddenned.  I've noticed this a few times on other episodes... is
this from a problem with the feed, or is it an editing error (as an editor
myself, I always note these sort of things).

No, no no, I don't mean the black and white flashbacks.  I am talking
about a VERY subtle shift within a scene (NOT at a cut; I mean right in
the middle of a shot) where suddenly the faces get redder.  It is NOT in
any way part of the narrative.

Huh...I have no idea why this would be, and didn't notice it when I
watched it on my set.  Maybe it's a cable situation with your set?
