15. Late Night With David Letterman
Unlike NBC's Tonight Show, which seems to have a cloudy filter on each camera, Late Night offers a sharp and detailed image of Dave and his guests. It's a great program to gaze at the stars.
CBS, Weekdays, 11:35 p.m. ____________________________________________

14. HDNet World Report
Watching the high-def news doc is like being a correspondent in the field. The show has brought its HD cameras to such faraway (and dangerous) spots as Iraq, Afghanistan and early post-Katrina New Orleans. The images are sometimes breathtaking -- and sometimes hard to look at. But that's what TV news is supposed to be all about.
HDNet, Tuesdays, 9 p.m.
13. NBC Sunday Night Football
The network's premiere season for the primetime NFL broadcast delivered some sensational images. Although there was occasional pixelation during the action, the overall effort was terrific. Loved the overhead HD camera. Great high-def pre-game show, too.
NBC, Sundays, 8:15 p.m. (during football season)
12. Sports Center
The studio shots are so-so, but there's no better place to watch game highlights in high-def than Sports Center.
ESPN, Daily, 6 p.m. and various other times.
11. Ugly Betty
I'm not a big fan of this quirky show about a fashion magazine. But I can't deny how cool it looks in high-def. From the glamorous Vanessa Williams to the eye-popping Art Deco sets, it's a fun ride. And Rebecca Romjin is joining the cast; can't beat that.
ABC, Thursdays, 8 p.m.
