October 30: Swanni's 10 Hottest Shows In HDTV!

By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (October 30, 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 Thursday, October 30, 2008: (All times Eastern -- and don't forget the link below to today's 'HD Hottie -- in fact, today there are four of them!

1. Smallville (New)
Program descript: "Jimmy catches a red and blue blur on film when he takes a picture of Clark saving Lois from a mugger." He might ask the chief for a digital.
CW, 8 p.m.

2. My Name Is Earl
(new)
The Karma Kid is back. Tonight, Earl plans a Halloween party for Earl Jr., but Randy thinks Catalina's nephew is capable of black magic.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Earl's Jaime Pressly.

NBC, 8 p.m.

3. Ugly Betty (new)
Program descript: "The competition between Betty and Kimmie (Lindsay Lohan) heats up." The way Lindsay has been leaning lately, that could have a double meaning.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Lindsay Lohan.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of UB's Rebecca Romijn.
ABC, 8 p.m.

4. Survivor: Gabon (new)
The adventure reality series returns for its 17th season and -- for the first time ever -- it's in beautiful HD! Tonight's program title: "It All Depends Upon the Pin-Up Girl." Pin-up Girl? Now we're talking why HDTV was invented in the first place, but hey, keep it together, Marcus Lehman, if you know what I mean. And I think you do.
CBS, 8 p.m.

5. NBA Basketball
Houston at Dallas
TNT, 8 p.m.

6. The Office (new)

Tonight, Pam is embarrassed when no one at corporate wears a costume on Halloween.

7. Bikini Destinations
Every redblooded American male should watch this show at least once (okay, maybe twice). Tonight, the bikini buddies bop over to Spain.
HDNet, 9 p.m.

8. 30 Rock (new)
Series debut. Tina Fey has been on TV more often this fall than Doppler Radar. But tonight, her actual show returns to the air. In this episode, the staff tries to stop her from adopting a baby. Hmm, they must have seen the box office receipts of Baby Mama.

NBC, 9:30 p.m.

9. Life On Mars
Detective Sam Tyler (Jason O'Mara) is transported to 1973 New York where he helps the police find a killer who may still be killing in 2008.

See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Life's Gretchen Mol.
ABC, 10 p.m.
