Look for format, p. size, or p. mode.

If I press the "screen mode" button on my remote, I get these options:

I see nothing that could change the screen size ratio

Do you have the manual for your TV? Or perhaps can you look it up on the manufacturer's website?
As for some of the zones having that border and others not. Yeah that's normal, I'm not sure for the reason, I think for some zones they just let the stage spill over into the border area, maybe it has something to do with how much memory the zone backgrounds take up ie: the ones that take up a lot get a blank border while the smaller ones get to spill over. Either way, it's normal so don't worry that something is broken.

I'm playing Sonic 3 right now... no problem at all. Very annoying on Sonic 1, 2 and Sonic CD.

That screen mode may change something on your TV. Full may be the full image untouched, Zoom could take alot off the picture, cinema may letterbox the picture, Expand that may fit it to the 16:9 screen. It would help to have the model number of your TV so I could look at the manual and see if there's anything at all that would fix it. If your in the PAL region then your overscan is much larger than the NTSC counterparts.
If not the only other way to get rid of the bars is to get a RGB video scalier and those start costing money real quick. The picture is truly stunning thou and well worth it in the long run.
