November 12: Swanni's 10 Hottest Shows In HDTV!

By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (November 12, 2009) -- High-Definition TVs are now in more than 40 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, November 12, 2009: (All times Eastern -- and don't forget the link below to today's 'HD Hottie -- in fact, today there are 5 of them!

 1. The Express
 Rob Brown stars as the ill-fated running back Ernie Davis who died of leukemia shortly after being drafted by the Cleveland Browns in 1962. The film also chronicles Davis' struggle with racism in 1950s America, a road well traveled in cinematic history. But the feel-good spirit of the story and Dennis Quaid's solid performance as Davis' college coach makes The Express well worth tuning in early on a Thursday night.
Cinemax, 6:20 p.m.

2. College Football
South Carolina at Rutgers.
 See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Erin Andrews.
ESPN, 7:30 p.m.

3. NBA Basketball
Cleveland at Miami.
TNT, 8 p.m.

 4. The Vampire Diaries (new)
CW, the network for the saucy set, tries to ride the Twilight wave with this new series about studly vampires and the obligatory hot chicks they seduce. Tonight's program descript says: "Damon tells Stefan why he returned to Mystic Falls." The obligatory hot chicks, of course.
CW, 8 p.m.

5. Survivor (new)
Program descript: "One castaway kills a rat so his tribe can eat." And who says reality shows aren't socially redeeming? By the way, will John Waters direct tonight's episode?
CBS, 8 p.m.

Bonus Pick:
Bones
Program descript: "Brennan and Booth investigate the death of a dwarf who was a wrestling star." Never thought Bones would stoop this low to improve ratings during sweeps month. Well, in a manner of speaking.

Fox, 8 p.m.

 6. The Office (new)
The writers continue to jump the shark; tonight, they trot out one of their old favorites: "Troubling rumors upset Michael." Wasn't that the plot of episode one this season? Oh, well, it's still funny.

Bonus Pick:
Fringe
The Fringe team finally determines a link between the mysterious Massive Dynamic and the series of unexplained episodes sweeping the nation...No, the series of unexplained episodes in the show, folks.

7. Grey's Anatomy (new)
Program descript: "Izzie returns with her high school mentor seeking treatment for dementia." Some might say Ms. Heigl should seek dementia treatment for nearly blowing her gig on this show.
