October 13: Swanni's 10 Hottest Shows In HDTV!

By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (October 13, 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 Tuesday, October 13, 2009: (All times Eastern -- and don't forget the link below to today's 'HD Hottie -- in fact, today there are 4 of them!

1. MLB Baseball Playoffs
Teams and times to be determined.
TBS, TBA

 2. Dan Rather Reports
Conservative media watchdog alert! The veteran newsman examines a wolf hunt and New York's jobless economic recovery.  No, they don't take place at the same time; just seems like it.
HDNet, 8 p.m.
3. 90210 (new)
 No, it's not the average number of people who watch a CW show. It's everyone's frothy fave from the 1990s, now all grown up and with a new cast of teen idols. Tonight, the program descript says: "Jen asks Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) for a large sum of money." Jen, I think Naomi is usually the one to ask for large sums of money, particularly from older gents, if you get my gist.
 See our 'HD Hottie' profile of 90201's AnnaLynne McCord.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of 90210's Shenae Grimes.
 CW, 8 p.m.

4. NCIS (new)
Program descript: "A marine is found dead halfway around the world, causing Ziva to recall a past chapter in her life." Uh-oh, cue the flashbacks.
 CBS, 8 p.m.

5. Dancing With the Stars (new)
 America's favorite dancing soap opera continues with a B celebrity lineup overflowing with such has-beens and wanna-bes as Donny Osmond, Joanna Krupa, Melissa Joan Hart and Michael Irvin. Ashley Hamilton (that's a guy, by the way), Debi Mazur, ex-supermodel Kathy Ireland and Tom 'The Hammer' Delay have already been eliminated -- and tonight, one more celebrity will get the boot! Oh, the humanity!
 See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Joanna Krupa.
ABC, 9 p.m.

6. Melrose Place (new)
 The network for the saucy set brings back another primetime soap from the 1990s. The basic ingredients here are the same --  lots of bitchy dialogue and bed hopping -- but the new hottie cast includes Katie Cassidy, Jessica Lucas, Stephanie Jacobsen and Ashlee Simpson. We thought Heather Locklear had moved out of the Melrose Place condo complex, but she's targeted for a November return. Laura Leighton is back as the landlord. She'll have her hands full; maybe literally in some episodes.

In tonight's episode, the program descript says Lauren (Jacobsen), who's a call girl in her spare time, takes a job on a yacht. Sounds like all hands will be on deck, or perhaps all hands will just be on Lauren.
CW, 9 p.m.

7. The Jay Leno Show (new)
Tonight's guests include actor John C. Reilly who will wander by to hawk his new film, Cirque du Freak, which will open in theaters next week.
NBC, 10 p.m.
8. The Good Wife (new)
 Julianna Margulies stars as the wife of a scandal-plagued politician who must restart her career as a defense attorney after the hubbie is disgraced once again. Well, if she's looking to associate herself with a better class of people, it won't be in the courtroom, let me tell ya.

Tonight, the program descript says: "Alicia discovers evidence of possible jury tampering in her firm's class-action suit against a pharmaceutical company." Lawsuit against a pharmaceutical company? Uh-oh, looks like another conservative media watchdog alert!
CBS, 10 p.m.
9. The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien (new)
Tonight's guests include Ice-T and Eddie Izzard
 NBC, 11:35 p.m.

10. Late Night With David Letterman
Tonight's guests include Sienna Miller who will hawk her new Broadway play and then fend off the host's attempt to make a play for her affections.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Sienna Miller.
CBS, 11:35 p.m.
