this is most certainly lossy, as evidenced by the blocks. you can also tell it's VBR (variable bit rate) by the jagged blocky pillars. CBR (constant bit rate) tends to cut straight across.
I'm pretty confident about spotting lossy source (thanks especially to ssamadi97's posts going all the way back to STG), the tricky thing for me these days is identifying MD since this is the one lossy source that has wide acceptance amongst traders. If the source is pre-90's and blocky, it's certainly not good for sharing (at least not here or any of the other popular traders' sites).
This screenshot looks like it could from an MD source. From what I've seen, MD resembles other lossy VBR codecs with very fat "dash-like" blocks. btw, what is this show?
ps thanks ssamadhi97 for the excellent and informative posts (as per usual).
