No and you can simply turn off.

Soap operas were filmed on usually on cheaper cameras that were designed for live capture like studio camera which operate at a higher frame rate.

All TVs these days have some sort of "smooth motion" mode it used to be for sports but now it's tacked on everything and makes things annoying.

A 240hz or w/e screen doesn't do anything to video a player with motion interpolation does.

Basically we're used to much slower motion in films when you get full 30 or even 60fps video it looks weird but you get used to it.

Soon most things will come at 60fps and old video will start looking weird.

Film's subjective fps is actually higher than 24 fps because of motion blur.
