(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Anybody got an ADVANCE list of those shows for 2003/2004 Season that will be aired in High Definition?

I do expect TitanTV will have the info when the season starts.

I am setting up my SP's particular to specific TiVo's. Examples:

Pilots of NEW shows to TiVo "B" (Will move to other TiVo if & when accepted)

HD OTA to TiVo "A" with Back ups to TiVo "C" (TiVo "A" HD Recordings not truly HD, but as close as can get including non anamorphic(sic) Wide Screen Letterbox)

Non HD to TiVo "C" with backups to TiVo "F"

Other TiVo's for Semi-archiving Netflix DVD Movies

Most of the information is on the network's websites or recent press releases. Like ABC just announced their HD fall shows just a couple days ago.

By the way, Titan TV is known to be very inaccurate when listing HD shows at times. Just an FYI.

Except "Friends"! :mad: :rolleyes:

I wonder if "Frasier" will be in true HD this year? Last year they just zoomed in to get 16x9 and chopped off the top and bottom of what's seen in 4x3. The quality was very poor too. Absolutely ridiculous... :rolleyes:

Friends is in the last season.. Also, it *may* be shot on video, and not film like hour long dramas are. They may not have upgraded all of their studio video cameras yet.

Friends along with the rest of their comedies and dramas are filmed. So it wouldn't be that hard to move to HD. Still, even though Friends is in it's last season, it's NBC's #1 show and there is no excuse for it not being in HD and almost everything else is. Of course if they do it they way they did Frasier, then who cares.... :(
