Blurry / grainy picture ( Mits ) 3 yrs old

73736 ( I think )
Bulb went out and I replaced. Ever since then I swear the picture looks terrible compared to what it did.
Text ( subs and credits ) seem to have a double image ( ghost or halo effect ).
Overall picture looks grainy / blurry and has a quality of a DVD printed in 1999.
An up close of somebody's face looks awesome, but move away to somebody sitting across table and they look horrible.
Very grainy, very out of focus. Not pixilated, just grainy / blurred.
Set is about 3 years old. Non smoking home.

Thanks

Sounds like when you replaced the bulb whatever movement of the tv neccessary or during the replacement process something was jostled and left out of focus or alignment. However, I am not sure how you would diagnose or remedy.
