I've seen an LCD TV that has got progressive scanning.

Does progressive scanning produce better TV pictures e.g make LCD picture quality as good as a CRT?

No, it may improve fast movement on screen, that's all.

All LCDs use progressive scanning to display the picture; LCDs cannot display interlaced video natively.

Whether this makes things better or worse than a CRT depends to some extent on the quality of the deinterlacing in the TV.

So, you have seen a completely normal LCD TV, then ?

Progressive scan video (eg, dvds) will always look best on a progressive scan display. Ignoring that, whether or not the LCD looks as good as a CRT depends on how much you spend on it.
