Sept. 29: What's on HDTV today

By Kevin C. Tofel


What we're watching:
We're almost done with our "24" DVDs here at home, so it's a good time to pick up a new espionage show in HD. Looks like it's the season premiere of Alias for me at 8 p.m. on ABC in 720p! You can bet we'll hop over to CBS for "CSI" at 9:00 too.

These types of shows are made for high-def with their numerous dark scenes and action sequences. Of course, you have to own a set that displays the dark shadows well for the full effect; a reason I've stuck with a CRT
set for some time.

Hey, this counts as a premiere for our "which network had the best HD premieres?" poll, so don't forget to vote! We're light on voters; help us Rock the HD Vote!

After the jump is our traditional listing of HD programs throughout the night.

Here are some other HDTV programs showing on selected networks today. All times are Eastern:
