What we're watching: More NBA action on TNT, but we'll be watching an hour-long episode of My Name is Earl on NBC. Also keep an eye out for the tail end of a Heroes marathon (what, you don't have the HD DVDs already?) and the premiere of a new show, Test Drive, at 8 p.m. on Mojo HD.
NBC is shuffling its lineup and to make Thursday a "Must-see TV" night again, it is pairing two of our favorite HD comedies My Name is Earl and The Office, with returning -- and now HDTV-ready -- series Scrubs, and new show 30 Rock. There's also some show called E.R. at 10 p.m. but does anyone really watch that anymore? 30 Rock moves to Thursdays beginning November 16th as it joins with Earl and The Office in super-sized 40-minute episodes, but the block trule comes together on the 30th with the arrival of Scrubs in the 9 p.m. slot. That seems like a pretty powerful lineup to us, but it remains to be seen if easter eggs, emo hipster doctors and a british comedy transplant can bring back memories of the Seinfeld / Friends lineup of yesteryear.
What we're watching: The Office and My Name is Earl of course, although Shark (a.k.a. court-House) gets attention as well. ABC is premiering all-new series Ugly Betty at 8 before Grey's Anatomy and Six Degrees. The CW checks in as they kick off new seasons of Smallville and Supernatural. ESPN-HD has SEC football on tap for tonight as Auburn faces South Carolina while ESPN2-HD features the Orioles vs.Yankees.
What we're watching: All-new tonight is the series premiere of Shark on CBS, featuring James Woods as a defense attourney turned prosecutor who doesn't lose his underhanded style of winning cases after switching sides. Our old friend Grey's Anatomy steps into its new night on ABC, first with a series recap and then the season premiere at 9, followed by new series Six Degrees. NBC brings back My Name is Earl, The Office and E.R. for another season, we'll keep our eyes peeled for more easter eggs, you've gotta figure there will be one sooner or later. Damon Wayans' The Underground is new tonight on Showtime, no word on if it's any funnier, while college football lights up ESPN HD as Virginia takes on Georgia Tech.
What we're watching: Just making sure everyone is aware, two of our high definition mainstays, My Name is Earl and The Office are doing things a bit differently tonight for their season finales. Instead of slotting a rerun in the place of the now-departed Four Kings, Will & Grace, Earl and Office will all be 40 minutes long, shifting the start time earlier by ten minutes for the latter two. Please adjust your DVRs -- and your lives -- accordingly.
A star from one of our favorite shows took a minute to talk to our friends over at TV Squad about the show and how it feels to have the weight of saving NBC on your shoulders. Ethan Suplee plays Randy on My Name is Earl and was the one holding the sign in the first HDTV easter egg. He also talks about some additional content that may be on the (HD?) DVD release.
What 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.
What we're
watching: With "unmissable" new episodes of My Name is
Earl and The Office tonight on NBC, plus Mr. 81 points a.k.a. Kobe Bryant on TNT-HD taking on the World
Chumps Champs, San Antonio (Go Pistons), this is a packed night of
high definition viewing. Even with all that, we'll find time to check out the amateurs during the NIT Championship on
ESPN and Shrek 2 at 9 p.m. on HBO.
Reader Scott M was quick with this one. He sent us a tip while
all of us were enjoying The Office. I have to admit that I missed this one; in fact, I have missed all of them. Oh
well, I am sure there will be more. Did anyone else notice this one?
While we were watching last weeks Earl for Easter Eggs
(I didn't notice any), maybe we should have been checking another one of our favorite high definition shows more
closely, Lost. Luckily TV Squad is more than willing to dissect each frame looking
for clues about the survivors, the mysterious island they are on and the Dharma Initiative. 
Appalled. Simply appalled. I
came home last night after a long day at work only to find my significant other watching SDTV! We are not talking about
the Style Channel or TLC here, but rather My Name is Earl on the SD
NBC feed. 
What we're
watching: It's a very very good night for HD, unless you're into sports,
but seriously, I don't know if I'm recovered from THE VINCE YOUNG SPECTACULAR I witnessed
last night, great great game. Tonight I'll be checking for the debut of NBC's new Thursday night "Must-see
TV" lineup, mixing our favorite HD show, My Name is Earl, with The Office, Will & Grace, and the debut of
Four Kings, all in HD (but Scrubs isn't, Lord, why hast thou forsaken me?)
1: I am going to convince the fiancee that the money
from our wedding will be best spent on a 1080p projector. Who needs a new kitchen? Really?
