Your TV probably has a built-in upscaler that's creating those diagonal lines.  The Super Nintendo emulator Snes9x comes with several upscaling filters (such as 2xSal and hq2x) which produce artifacts very similar to what you're seeing.

Also, I took a picture of Ultima V running on a traditional CRT television that I thought you might find helpful to have as a reference.  As you can see, there's not really much of a visible gap between blue pixels even though they are technically separated by a black column.  The second photo is a side-by-side comparison of the game running in AppleWin and on a CRT television.
