    Verizon FiOS TV subscribers are getting more than just new 3D VOD options, as it's added Nat Geo WILD HD and Investigation Discovery HD at channels 632 and 623, respectively. Unfortunately we don't have any explosive reviews of either network to offer, but we figure a nature channel and true crime stories network are pretty self explanatory. Nat Geo WILD is launching in Maryland and Virginia today and should be available everywhere by the end of the week, while Investigation Discovery HD should already be lighting your channel guides up, taking the official HD channel count to a robust 142, we'll let you decide if that lives up to the "best in HD entertainment" title.

    Listen up, nature lovers -- you should seriously consider moving to the UK. We're hearing that National Geographic is gearing up to exclusively launch Nat Geo Wild HD on the Sky platform on April 1st, and it's reportedly being done as a response to growing demand (and growing ratings) for the SD version of Nat Geo Wild. Launch programs on the new channel will include Blue Whale Odyssey, Darwin's Lost Voyage and the second series of Strange Days on Planet Earth, narrated by Hollywood actor Ed Norton, and yes, the content will indeed be made available from day one on Sky Anytime, the operator's video-on-demand service.
