What we're
watching: I'm watching the game man! Two old school coaches squaring off in
the Orange Bowl tonight on ABC. Bowden vs. Paterno. I also look forward to seeing more of Penn State's QB Michael
Robinson, a threat running or passing the ball.If you don't like football, there's always Man on Fire on HBO at 9:30 p.m. starring Denzel Washington. I wish I could recommend one of my favorite comedies, Scrubs, but it's NOT IN HIGH DEFINITION DUE TO THE HEARTLESS BASTARDS AT NBC *takes a breath*.
After the jump is our traditional listing of HD programs throughout the night.

My program guide is showing Scrubs as "HD" on both NBC East HD and NBC West HD. This is on Bell ExpressVu. But it certainly wouldn't be the first time the program guide was dead wrong.
Shame on NBC.

It's not listing it in HD on Titan TV, althought they are sometiems wrong also, I know it wasn't in HD last season, I was hoping this season it would be, but I'm not optimistic.

You're just trying to get a hi-def screenshot of Jenn Sterger. Don't think we don't know. ;^)

And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you darn kids.
