How many times have we heard people say, I will get HD when more TV is in HD. I really don't care how much of overall TV is in HD. I only care how much of what I watch is in HD. I think that is a pretty high percentage.

How about you? Here is my list.

Cold Case HD
Jag HD
CSI HD
CSI Miami HD
CSI NY HD
Still Standing HD
Raymond HD
ER HD
Stargate SG-1 (not for me yet)
Stargate Atlantis (not for me yet)
Star Trek Enterprise (not for me yet)
Dead Like Me HD
NCIS HD
Las Vegas HD

Rumor has it that BravoHD will be running some of the Stargates in the future (which is good, my wife and I were pissed when SciFi stole it from Showtime..where it used to be in HD).

ST Enterprise...we can only hope that 24 will get an encoder and the rest of their equipment soon.

Love "Dead Like Me" and finally getting to see Odessey 5 on HDNET from the beginning...last night they re-ran the premiere.

I've become very spoiled.  If it ain't HD, I ain't watchin it. Though after having my HD system for a year now, I think I'm still in that "honeymoon" stage because I can sit and watch (and enjoy) almost anything so long as it's in HD.

I wished Stargate and Stargate Atlantis was on HD, but as long as sports,  Dicovery HD and ESPN HD is HD I will be happy for now!
I also wished The History Channel would be on HD.

I would say about 85% of my viewing is HD.  6-1 and 18-1 have helped bring that number up recently.  I only have access to over the air digital, so my viewing choices are limited.

720p

I watch a lot of HD.  The only exceptions are Letterman and Conan.

well, we just caught up on a whole ton last night..

CSI:NY
CSI
Dead Like Me

While we watched those some new stuff recorded (that we may or may not have time to watch)

Clubhouse
CBS made-for-tv-movie
L&O:CI
Dead Like Me

Not to mention that unfortunate Packers game yesterday..

And that is just Sunday.

There are of course other things I watch during the week.. Really the only non-HD I watch is Cartoon Network, Sci-Fi, and USA.. oh, and the occassional movie off of a pay channel. Otherwise everything is HD. I'm not a "I only watch HD" person, but there is really a ton of it out there. About the only way a person could say "there is nothing I really care about in HD" is if they either watch primarily news or reality programming, or cable channels (A&E, Bravo, TCM Discovery, etc).

I find non HD programming not worth watching at all.  the only non HD programming I watch is the news and Enterprise(which actually is HD let's get going UPN...

CSI - pretty much all of them
Crossing Jordan
Law n Order most of them
Las Vegas/ MNF
NCIS
Leno
Alias
Smallville.
