But is it consistantly on LCD TV's on display in stores?

As noted by others below, stores will pump things up to bring buyers in. If your consistant cartoon experience is only in stores and/or only with LCD's then I'll say what I said before; it's quite likely the setup (basically all stores do this) or the TV. I'm not saying BD maybe doesn't have some part at fault, but on a decent and properly set up (not a store trying to attract buyers) display you may feel otherwise.
I've always found LCD's to have cartoonish pictures. The higher Hz units to my eyes are even more so. Try a BD on a PJ, plasma or CRT and I think you MAY see things differently.
