Sept. 18: What's on HDTV today

 
What we're watching: Football, football -- and Emmy awards. That's the HDTV line up for today. There are at least four football games in high-def: Jaguars at Colts (1 p.m.) and Browns at Packers (4:15 p.m.) on CBS, Lions at Bears (1 p.m.) on Fox, and Chiefs at Raiders (8:30 p.m.) on ESPN-HD. (Some of these may be regional for me; you may see another game on Fox, for example.) Ellen DeGeneres is hosting the Emmys at 8 p.m.

Here are some other HDTV programs showing on selected networks today, all in Eastern time:

ABC: Pearl Harbor (7 p.m.)

CBS: NFL: Jaguars at Colts (1 p.m.), NFL: Browns at Packers (4:15 p.m.), The 57th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards (8 p.m.)

Is it just me or are the CBS games NOT in high def?

It is a good thing that my FOX is not in HD so I didn't have to watch how bad Joey Harrington really is.

CBS only does 3 games per week in HD, Jags vs. Colts was not one of them this week. Fox does 6 games per week but they only had 5 today because the Saints game was moved to tomorrow. Selections are determined as the season progresses.

The browns/packers game didn't start out in high def either, but then when I switched back later it was in HD.
