WB has announced that starting on March 5th Friends will be available in HD for broadcast network syndication. For competent CW affiliates like Chicago's WGN, this means we'll be seeing this:





However, I've noticed that WVTV STILL fails at broadcasting syndicated programming in HD. Are they really going to miss the Friends HD bandwagon too?

I prefer Milwaukee's CW affiliate over Chicago's as it has no subchannels and a full ATSC bitrate (17 Mbit). WGN Chicago is only 14 Mbps. So it would be nice if they got their asses in gear for this.

Equipped for HD syndication.......yes.
By March 5th........Probably not.

We don't intend on upgrading until we have a building to put the upgrade into. No point in updating in a busted building. It would have been done by now if it weren't for the great Milwaukee flood.

The building acquisition is currently in progress.

So, Friend's is now available in HD? So is a bunch of other stuff as well. :huh?:

FYI - My *** is in gear everyday.
