As someone else pointed out, the usual slur is, "Never Twice the Same Color."
I used to believe the propaganda about how marvelous it was that PAL didn't
have a hue control, because the colors were always correct.  Then I saw a
monitor displaying seasick PAL -- everyone was green.  The most frustrating
part was that there was no hue control, so the error introduced at the studio
couldn't be corrected!
