HD MovieCity left some time ago and many companies it bought, but not HD HBO that left recently.]]>Oct 31st 2008 8:29PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/31/hbo-hd-coming-soon-in-latin-america/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/31/hbo-hd-coming-soon-in-latin-america/Oct 31st 2008 11:52PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/31/hbo-hd-coming-soon-in-latin-america/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/31/hbo-hd-coming-soon-in-latin-america/
But I feel compelled to make a correction by saying the latin Warner Bros. channel (btw only available on cable/satellite, rather than OTA like the The WB/CW) is actually called The Warner Channel, and, before the channel went for a slight rebranding years ago, it was referred to as WBTV. Also, the programming was quite different from the American WB, as many of the shows from the heyday of the late fifth US network were shown on other channels (Buffy was on FOX for its entire run and Dawson's Creek was on Sony Entertainment Television, to name a few) while Warner Channel itself at that time had Friends, ER, Babylon 5 and many classic or short-lived shows from the Warner Bros. Television catalog.

Henrique is right, HBO HD is indeed available through TVA in São Paulo. Don't know about the rest of Latin America though. Also, the ad this post mentions has been running for about a month, and ads for HBO's latest Brazilian original series, Alice, have been running since as early as august with a tiny "available in HD" logo near the end.]]>Nov 1st 2008 5:44AM
