November 3: Swanni's 10 Hottest Shows In HDTV!

By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (November 3, 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, November 3, 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. College Football
Bowling Green at Buffalo
 See our 'HD Hottie' profile of Erin Andrews.
ESPN 2, 7 p.m.

2. V
Series debut. The Mouse Network dips into the dusty vault of past TV failures and unleashes a remake of the short-lived NBC 1980s sci-fi series featuring reptilian-like aliens disguised as humans. (So that explains the DMV). In tonight's episode, Anna, the leader of the V's, tells a worldwide audience that people should join together. Sort of like when the Beatles sang All You Need Is Love on global television. Or something like that. The show's cast includes Elizabeth Mitchell of Lost. Early buzz on the show is good; we'll see.
ABC, 8 p.m.

 3. Dan Rather Reports
Conservative media watchdog alert! The veteran newsman investigates the rise of carbonomics, whose proponents preach going green until you're blue in the face. Or something like that.
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: "Annie's boyfriend may be doing drugs while Naomi is afraid that Adrianna will have a relapse." Wow, has 90210 become the drug capital of primetime TV? Judging from the picture above, it would not be a big shock, would it?
 See our 'HD Hottie' profile of 90201's AnnaLynne McCord.
See our 'HD Hottie' profile of 90210's Shenae Grimes.
 CW, 8 p.m.

Bonus Pick:
NCIS
Two mercenaries are found dead on Gibbs' boat.
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 and Michael Irvin. Ashley Hamilton (that's a guy, by the way), Debi Mazur, Melissa Joan Hart, ex-supermodel Kathy Ireland, Chuck Liddell and Tom 'The Hammer' Delay have already been eliminated! And tonight, 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, bisexual Ella (Cassidy) finds Lauren's (Jacobsen) expensive new clothing and an envelope of cash. Considering that Lauren is a hooker on the side, this is not exactly on par with the discovery of the Titanic on the ocean's floor. But it probably makes for a more interesting program for the CW audience.
CW, 9 p.m.

7. The Jay Leno Show (new)
Tonight's guests include Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger who could help us all by 'terminating' a few NBC execs while in town.
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 agrees to a conjugal visit with Peter (the scandal-plagued politician) to get information from him because her client was convicted during his time as state's attorney."
CBS, 10 p.m.
9. The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien
Tonight's guests include the ubiquitous Neil Patrick Harris.
 NBC, 11:35 p.m.

10. Late Night With David Letterman
Tonight's guests include former vice president Al Gore. What, no chicks? Not sure how the carnal-minded host will handle that.
CBS, 11:35 p.m.
