will widescreen tv eat the little black borders on edges of the screen?

I encode everything with

LetterBox(16, 16, 16, 16)

& I'm planning on getting a widescreen tv next month & was wondering
am i gonna see little black borders on the left & right side of my widescreen tv (if i use overscan that is) ??
OR ... will widescreen tv eat the little black borders on the left & right side of the screen.
On my normal tv they disapear, is it the same for widescreen tv's??
