TBS HD and National Geographic HD come to TWC customers in Rochester, NY
Although it seems as if the HD expansion craze is still tiptoeing around Manhattan, those situated in Rochester, New York are certainly enjoying a pair of newcomers on Time Warner Cable. Effectively immediately, TBS HD and National Geographic HD are live and ready for viewing on channels 1049 and 1055, respectively, and while we're not told exactly what other high-definition additions will come later this year, a recent e-mail sent out to call centers does make mention that more could be (and should be) on the way soon. As tipster Claude puts it: "It isn't much, but he'll take what he can get." [Disclosure: Engadget is part of the Time Warner family][Thanks, Claude]

too bad TBS HD is not High Definition, it is that Crappy Terranex stretch that Turner invented, belongs right up their with The great idea they had of colorizing B&W Films

TBS is stretched, but it looks a lot better than the SD version. At least, some things do. Older episodes are still lower quality than newer ones.
