Dec. 7: What's on HDTV Today

What we're watching:

Hey, did "That 70's Show" just catch up to us in the new millenium or have I missed this? Looks like the show is on in high-definition tonight with a new episode at 8 p.m. in 720p. GROOVY! I've watched re-runs in syndication, so I'll tune in to Fox to catch up on the program.

If you yearn for programming plots from wa-a-a-y before 1976, you can travel back to The Third Age on TNT-HD at 8 p.m. instead. "The Lord of The Rings: Fellowship of the Ring" is presented in a 1080i format; I may switch over to see if they're really showing this in high-def and true widescreen.

Before I forget: is anyone else besides me wondering why nobody is showing "Pearl Harbor" in HD tonight???

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