Just a word of advice to those who maybe have access to Sci-Fi USA/Sci-Fi, but don't have an HD TV.
If you have a box that carries HD signals, don't be afraid to watch the HD channel anyway, especially if you have a high end SDTV.
I have a flat-screen Sony Trinitron, really high in quality for a SDTV and my box pulls in HD signals for about 10 channels, and if I ever want to watch a program on one of those channels, I always opt for the HD option. The picture is still MILES cleaner than the standard channel.

I'm coming over, don't wait up, just leave a window open.... You really must stop leaving me homo erotic messages. I actually am wondering if a network is broadcasting in HD, but the show is not......do I get a better picture? To me the answer is yes. Only cuz I am seeing a much better picture than I do on the normal brodcast of USA. I can switch back and forth from HD to standard channel. Also, the program is broadcasted in a cropped version. And I can choose whether I want to see it in 720 or 1080. It would be a clearer picture because it is a digital feed instead of analog.
