HDTV Listings for April 29, 2007

by Richard Lawler posted Apr 29th 2007 at 5:49PM

What we're watching: With no Planet Earth, Discovery HD Theater is featuring Panic in the Ring of Fire once again tonight, but for slightly different looks of fear, we'll be watching the Mavericks at the Warriors later on TNT. The #1 seed is coming into Game 4 down 2-1 and facing a must-win game to have a good chance of advancing to the second round of the NBA Playoffs.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 26, 2006

What we're watching: The Western Conference finals continue as the Dallas Mavericks look to even up things against the Suns at 8:30 p.m. on TNT-HD. Otherwise, it's slim pickings tonight with a jumble of reruns and movies. You can check out Freaky Friday on ABC or Mona Lisa Smile on Fox, but we'll keep the clicker stuck between NBA and NHL playoff action tonight, no matter how sweaty it gets.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 23, 2006

What we're watching: Only one season finale tonight, as House ends their season with a bang, literally. The Eastern Conference finals are here, and it's the same teams as last year, Detroit vs. Miami. They went all seven games last season, what will it take to get to the finals this year?

On ABC Stephen King's Desperation takes center stage, maybe this will be better than every other Stephen King adaptation (except Misery)...maybe not. The miniseries 10.5 Apocalypse also comes to an end on NBC, but we may give WB's Pepper Dennis another look at 9 p.m.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 19, 2006

What we're watching: Plenty of season finales tonight, and two championship teams trying to avoid just that. The NBA championship contenders of last year, Spurs & Pistons, are both trying to stave off elimination and force a deciding Game 7 against the Mavericks and Cavaliers. The seasons that we know are ending tonight belong to Close to Home, Numb3rs and a two-hour block of Conviction series finale.


Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 17, 2006

What we're watching: Lost is still the show to watch, we guess. The last few episodes have been a bit of a drag, here's hoping they pick things up. Invasion wraps up their first (and last, thanks Bob!) season tonight, along with CSI:NY, Law & Order and Bones. The Detroit Pistons start from scratch tonight trying to put away the Cleveland Cavaliers with their series tied 2-2. The defending champ San Antonio Spurs however are just trying to stay alive after falling down 3-1 to the Dallas Mavericks. Think Mark Cuban can smell the Conference finals yet?

HDTV Listings for May 9, 2006

Gilmore GirlsWhat we're watching: Close only counts in hoseshoes, so despite a narrow loss or a blowout, the Mavericks and Cavaliers are both down 1-0 in their second-round matchups, they'll try to get back on track tonight on TNT-HD. If you feel like being scared silly in a ripped-from-the-headlines drama, Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America should be good to keep you inside for weeks.

Also new tonight are back-to-back episodes of The Unit, and season finales for Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 6, 2006

What we're watching: The first round of the NBA Playoffs is almost over, with the first-round matchup of the century between the best player in the league (Kobe) and the 2-time defending MVP (Nash). Starts at 8:30 p.m. on TNT-HD. Also not to be missed is the Kentucky Derby at 5 p.m. or Tom Hanks on a new Saturday Night Live, but when the game is on you know where to be.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 4, 2006

by Richard Lawler posted May 4th 2006 at 1:10PM

What we're watching: The NBC Thursday night tour continues with new episodes, you know the drill. In NBA Playoffs action the Bulls, Suns and Pacers all want to keep playing, while the Heat, Lakers and Nets don't, we'll see who comes out on top there (BTW, if you missed LeBron's tightrope walk down the baseline -- not a travel -- for the win last night, you have no one to blame but yourself).

We'll be checking out boxing on ESPN-HD tonight, as Sergio Mora takes on some guy whose name we won't even try to pronounce, hope he can fight.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for May 3, 2006

What we're watching: Lost is back, although good luck at remembering what has been going on after all these repeats, check TV Squad if you need help like I do.

While the first round may be over for some (thanks for coming Denver & Memphis, don't let the door hit you on the way out), the NBA Playoffs trudge march on with two Eastern Conference Game 5's tonight. LeBron and Gilbert Arenas continue their epic battle of mediocre teams while the Pistons attempt to put the Bucks behind them once and for all.

Also showing tonight is the season finale of One Tree Hill and new episodes of all network TV shows except Everyone Hates Chris.

HDTV Listings for May 2, 2006

What we're watching: The playoffs are heating up, as the Heat start from scratch against the suddenly-competitive Chicago Bulls and Phoenix tries to avoid an early exit against the seventh-seeded LA Lakers. Also not to be forgotten are new episodes of Veronica Mars, Law & Order SVU and The Unit, among others.

Definitely looks like an NBA night, we have to see if the MVP will step up under adversity or fade away.

HDTV Listings for May 1, 2006

by Richard Lawler posted May 1st 2006 at 3:29PM

What we're watching: Primetime tonight brings us NBA Playoffs, MLB action, 24, Prison Break & more, but those are all also-rans in my opinion.

For true high definition greatness one must decide between Days of Thunder at 6 p.m. on HBO with the Cruise-y one himself, or the highly stylized Sin City at 6:45 on Starz (much like Sky Captain it is entirely green screened and looks great in HD).

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

What we're watching: Most programming tonight is on hold for the ongoing and unfortunately-SD NFL Draft (the Lions didn't take a wide receiver!?!?!?!?) but later on the NBA Playoffs continue with Denver looking to even up their series at two games apiece with the Clippers.

Also tonight on Cinemax is the always-excellent in HD Ocean's Twelve, or you can go with the special effects-laden Pearl Harbor.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

HDTV Listings for April 28, 2006

NBA PlayoffsWhat we're watching: NBA Playoffs action does not get better than this. LeBron & Kobe in back to back games, both trying to lead their teams to a 2-1 advantage in their series. The networks are keeping the party going, as NBC and CBS both have all new episodes lined up for tonight, and Fox throws in a high definition Austin Powers.

Unfortunately, Oprah isn't high definition yet and neither are the Daytime Emmys so ABC is out for the evening.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

Dwight Schrute WorkspaceWhat we're watching: Will & Grace, My Name is Earl, The Office and E.R. are all back with new episodes tonight, we're getting the gang back together. Elsewhere, the NBA Playoffs continue, with The Flash & Shaq taking on the Bulls, while the Clippers try to make it three straight against the Nuggets. Denver will need a monster game from Carmelo Anthony with Kenyon Martin suspended indefinitely; we'll see if they can pull it off.

Also, Starz-HD has been added to the schedule.

Our traditional high-def listings continue below.
