Oh yeah for sure! It's beautiful what they've done with it. They've cleaned the prints up real nice and the remastered effects are done tastefully.

I think most of the episodes were shot on standard 16mm, meaning that the negatives are probably pretty crappy by now.

I read it was mostly just upscaled to 1080p like just about everything that wasn't shot with HD cameras (most movies are analog).   I won't be purchasing Blu-Rays of any movies that were not shot with a 1080p camera.   Makes as much sense as watching a movie in a 3d theater with 3d glasses when that movie was not originally filmed in 3d.    Hollywood is full of a bunch of money grubbing assholes.
:P   Internets are super serious.

Well try and find a 1080p torrent of one of the episode and see for yourself. Personally I think they look pretty damn good.

Just to note, they have the remastered video with new cgi effects & 7.1 dts-HD Master audio, and remastered video with original effects and original audio. So no one is missing out on either one there. You can flip between each one with the angle button while you are watching them.
