October 27: Swanni's 10 Hottest Shows In HDTV!

By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (October 27, 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 27, 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. NBA Basketball
Boston at Cleveland.
TNT, 7:30 p.m.


2. College Football
East Carolina at Memphis.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Erin Andrews.

ESPN 2, 8 p.m.

3. Dan Rather Reports
The veteran newsman investigates how easy it is to buy narcotics in Texas. Well, that explains a lot.

HDNet, 8 p.m.


4. 90210

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: "Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord, pictured right) meets the son of a famous movie star." Uh-oh; I bet he will have this 90210 resident's number before the night is over. And I'm not talking about her phone number.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of 90201's AnnaLynne McCord.

CW, 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, Chuck Liddell and Tom 'The Hammer' Delay have already been eliminated! Tonight, Taylor Swift will perform -- and two more celebrities will get the boot! Oh, the humanity!
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Joanna Krupa.
ABC, 9 p.m.

6. Melrose Place

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, Lauren (Jacobsen) goes on another date in exchange for money. Well, at least everyone knows where they stand in that relationship.
CW, 9 p.m.

7. The Jay Leno Show (new)
Tonight's guests include Ewan McGregor who will wander by to hawk his new film, Amelia, and the great Tina Fey, who will hawk (and beg) for people to watch 30 Rock.
NBC, 10 p.m.


8. The Good Wife
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. Exhibit A: Tonight, the program descript says "Alicia represents a stripper who says she was raped by a rich, prominent businessman." Uh-oh, stripper raped by a rich guy? It's time for a...Conservative media watch dog alert!
CBS, 10 p.m.

9. The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien
Tonight's guests include Garry Shandling who will wander by to hawk his new DVD of It's Garry Shandling's Show.
NBC, 11:35 p.m.


10. Late Night With David Letterman
Tonight's guests include Courteney Cox, who will wander by to hawk her new ABC sitcom, Cougar Town -- and she will try to explain to the carnal-minded host that "cougars" don't go for 61-year-olds.
CBS, 11:35 p.m.
