Dec. 29: Swanni's 10 Hottest Shows In HDTV!

By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (December 29, 2008) -- High-Definition TVs are now in more than 30 million U.S. homes and there are scores of high-def programming choices.

But which shows should you watch? And why?

Every day here at TVPredictions.com, I scan the HD programming aisles and serve up 10 programs so good -- so hot! -- that you can't miss them. Sports, movies, primetime comedies and drama -- they're all there and in beautiful high-def.

We call this list, "The Hottest Shows in HDTV!" And here they are for Monday, December 29, 2008: (All times Eastern -- and don't forget the link below to today's 'HD Hottie -- in fact, today there are seven of them!

1. Live Free or Die Hard
Bruce Willis is back as Detective John McClane -- and he's better than ever. In Live Free or Die Hard (better known as Die Hard 4), a wise cracking Brucey protects an equally wise cracking government witness (Justin Long of the PC/Mac commercials) -- and his an obligatory hot daughter played by Mary Elizabeth Winsted!
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
Cinemax, 7:45 p.m.

2. PIrates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Johnny Depp shines as the swashbuckling pirate Capt. Jack Sparrow in this adventure/comedy for the entire family. Orlando Bloom is adequate as Depp's rival/sidekick while Keira Knightley (pictured) is the obligatory hot female of interest. The first in the trilogy.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Keira Knightley.
ABC, 8 p.m.

3. House (repeat)
Dr. House continues to use a private investigator to dig up dirt on his fellow doctors. Last week, he thought he killed his best friend's girl friend in surgery, Man, this guy's name should be Dr. House of Horrors.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of House's Olivia Wilde.
Fox, 8 p.m.

4. Gossip Girl (repeat)
Vanessa blackmails Blair (Leighton Meester) into being a nicer person. Sounds like Dr. House would make the perfect house doctor in this show.

CW, 8 p.m.

5. College Football
Missouri at Northwestern in the Valero Alamo Bowl.

6. Smallville
Program descript: "Lana absorbs Clark's powers and steals incriminating evidence from Lex's safe; a battle ensues between Lana and Lex." Sounds like Clark should be a little upset, too.
HDNet, 8 p.m.

7. Bones (repeat)
Program descript: "When the body of a reality TV show host is found partially decomposed in an out house, TV critics all over America start to celebrate!" Okay, I made up the TV critics celebrating part. But the murder of a reality TV show host is actually part of the plot.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Emily Deschanel.
Fox, 9 p.m.

8. The Seven Deadly Sins: Lust
The History Channel folks examine how cultures have viewed good old lust over the years. Did you know the ancient Greeks used to celebrate it? (Keep the ancient Greeks jokes to yourself, folks.)
History Channel, 9 p.m.

9. Late Night With David Letterman (repeat)
Tonight's guest: Reese Witherspoon.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Reese Witherspoon.
