I own an Emerson LC391EM3 TV, likely manufactureed for USA, late 2012. Will I get a significantly better?

picture, if I pay Comcast cable service extra money for high definition? We are quite satisfied with the picture quality.TV is 1920 by 1080 pixels 60 hertz aspectratio 16.9

tuner ATSC/NTSC. Will our other 20 year old TVs quit working if we get high definition? The Emerson owner's manual does not seem to answer any of these questions. It does not even say the TV is HD capable, but I suppose it is.

Update:

It was purchased in Jacksonville, Florida, USA, Dec 2012

    1920 by 1080 pixels is 1080P HD resolution. Get the HD box for the Emerson. Leave the 20 y/o TV's the way they are. Welcome to the 21st century.

    Yes, the TV is HD. You can get an HD digital adapter or an HD cable box to put HD service on the TV. Neither of these will change anything for your other TVs. It all comes through the same cable.
