    What we're watching: A rerun rewind, in the face of so many old episodes, we'll go with the Wednesday night standard in a back-to-back Lost showing. The NBA Draft is tonight (it was just a new basketball) and unfortunately SD, it would be nice if ESPN at least filled up the widescreen with relevant draft ticker info.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: Last week, Miami clinched the NBA title and a star was born in Dwyane Wade, today, the only new show on is WB's Pepper Dennis. Ouch. Oh well, there is also the rather odd The Brothers Grimm on Starz.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: Saved & The Closer have established themselves as part of the summer high-def landscape, and they're back tonight. The reviewer at TV Squad didn't like Saved very much, but you may want to give it a shot. It's a pretty good Grey's Anatomy substitute without all the estrogen floating around. The College World Series continue on ESPN at 7, but there's not much else new tonight.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: HBO and Mojo are new Sunday night staples, while Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives make a rerun return after being bumped by basketball the last few weeks. TNT has a Demi Moore movie that you probably haven't seen, Half Light skipped the theaters and went straight to video. If a romantic thriller about a woman, a lighthouse and Scotland sounds good to you, it'll be on at 8.Finally, Discovery HD Theater brings us a new episode of Sunrise Earth, featuring a total eclipse for a change; followed by The Greenland, apparently explaining how somewhere so far north can be called green.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: After the great Wright-Taylor fight last week, it would be pretty hard for this Saturday night lineup to compete, but we'll try.  There is always the College World Series, which has gone to it's final round and Game 1 is tonight on ESPN. Then there is A Bug's Life on ABC followed by another lame-duck episode of The Evidence. To cap things off is a repeat of SNL, featuring Kevin Spacey and Nelly Furtado.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: Nothing on tonight that you haven't probably seen already. 24 is still about Jack Bauer slicing and dicing terrorists, Jennifer Love Hewitt is still talking to dead people on Ghost Whisperer, and models are still beating each other senseless on Perfect 10: Model Boxing.Yup, just your average Friday in the summertime.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: Thursdays in the summertime are a dry HD night. ABC and Fox don't even make an effort, while CBS, UPN and WB only show reruns. There's another new episode of Windfall on, but not much else other than baseball, with games on ESPN and INHD.Looks like a night of Earl and The Office, we'll pull some day-old pizza out of the fridge to celebrate.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: Whew. The NBA & NHL Finals both came down to exciting finishes, congratulations to all the teams involved. Unfortunately, that sort of cuts into the available HD programming tonight, but there still a few bright spots. MLB has prime time sports to itself now and takes advantage as the Mets and Reds go at it on ESPN. On INHD, their new Mojo lineup for men rolls on with two brand new series debuting tonight. Fueled should be a hit with gearheads checking out a Pontiac GTO being prepped for the 24 hours of Daytona; while After Hours with Daniel helps us get familiar with the sort of restaurants that don't put 15 pieces of flair on every server's outfit.On the oldie but goodie side, HBO's Sunday lineup is in for review, Entourage was a great episode. also on ABC are back to back episodes of Lost.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

The Mavericks must win Game 6 tonight to force a deciding Game 7 at home on Thursday. Dirk and Dwyane have both been playing really well, there is no excuse to watch anything else tonight.Well, there is a new episode of Pepper Dennis, as well as the Golden Trailer Awards on HDNet for the best film previews.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: The Sunday night lineup is definitely sparked by HBO's summer additions, Deadwood, Lucky Louie, Entourage and Dane Cook's Tourgasm all are back with new episodes. Making it's debut tonight is INHD's Mojo programming block with Three Sheets, Beer Nutz, London Live and Decades Rock. We'll see if that is a good idea, or if it makes us beg for Tour de Gorge.That said we're most likely to watch Game 5 of the NBA Finals, the first in what has become a best-of-three series. Mavericks vs. Heat at 9 p.m. on ABC.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

However, the big sporting event of the night is the middleweight title fight between Winky Wright and Jermain Taylor. The younger, bigger champion Taylor vs. the more experienced, defensive-minded Wright. Which style will win out?HBO will also show the recent light heavyweight fight between Antonio Tarver and Bernard Hopkins prior to the Wright-Taylor bout. The sweet science is on display at 9:30 p.m on HBO-HD.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    INHD is rolling out a new programming block Mojo, a lot like Cartoon Network's Adult Swim albeit aimed at "men who live accomplished and adventurous lives". Apparently if you are one, you'll just know. Basically, they are targeting the early adopter demographic they feel is the most likely to own an HDTV with what they think they we want to watch. Several of the shows kick off June 18, with a few more to follow later, all will air primarily on Sundays and Wednesdays during prime time.

Puck drops on NBC at 8 p.m. On ABC, there is a new episode of Commander in Chief, otherwise it is mostly a night of reruns once again. We'll probably watch Ocean's Twelve for the millionth time and then Jet Li in Unleashed at 10 p.m. on Cinemax.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: The NBA Finals are definitely the highlight tonight, with Miami facing a must-win Game 3 at home against Dallas. We'll see if Shaq and Dwyane Wade are up to the task. Otherwise, there is baseball, a bunch of repeats, and The Skeleton Key at 9 p.m. on HBO followed by a repeat of the season premiere of Deadwood.

The NHL Finals hit a major network on Game 3 tonight, although things look pretty bleak for Edmonton after losing their goalie in game 1.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: If you missed the premiere of Windfall last night, you're in luck, it's back again for the first time at 9 p.m. on NBC. HDNet brings a new episode of Get Out! to the table, this time coming from Mexico. On Fox is Rob Schneider as The Animal. We'll probably sit back, catch Phantom of the Opera on HBO and count the compression artifacts we wouldn't have seen on the HD DVD version.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

    What we're watching: Forget the NBA Finals, four episodes of My Name is Earl, and Lean on Me, we've got an actual premiere tonight: NBC's new show Windfall (warning: loud music). 19 friends win the lottery, hilarity drama ensues. The bad news is that TV Squad described it as "a show that Fox didn't want" last fall. Doesn't sound too good but at least we've got Dirk, Shaq & The Flash to keep us company tonight. Dallas by three.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

You can catch up on the network programming you missed, or check out Panic in the Ring of Fire on Discovery HD at 7 p.m., a special featuring footage directly from the affected areas of last weeks massive earthquake in Indonesia. Definitely coming on in Canada, hopefully in the US too, although it's hard to say since they haven't updated their webpage yet.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.Update: No such luck on Discovery, same old Sunrise Earth (which will provide some new summer programming starting June 19).
