No. That's the TV interpolating frames. The effect described would introduce a stutter.

Ugh, I hate that effect. The frame rate dynamically changes based on when the algorithm can find frames to interpolate. It's so disorienting.

That effect can often be turned off. I know it can on my 2008-era samsung tv.
