HDTV Listings for July 4, 2006

What we're watching

: The shuttle launch is currently set to go at 2:37 p.m. and is on HDNet, the crew is already strapped in and ready, so now all that is left is for the weather to hold up. Celebrating the 4th in high def isn't easy, but as Flibberty Gibbet pointed out, PBS should be showing A Capital Fourth, live from Washington D.C. in HD, check your local listings. Also on HDNet movies tonight is the excellent surfing documentary Step Into Liquid. It will make anyone want to get on a surfboard if you watch, we guarantee it.
