Will TBS HD "stretch" programming like TNT HD does ?
Is E* in negotiations for this channel yet ?

September 1 will be just before the start of the MLB playoffs on TBS, so I sure hope E* is doing something to get a deal in place.
What is crazy is that they (TBS) showed all of their Braves games in HD OTA in the Atlanta area last year. However, NONE of the games that have been on TBS this year have been in HD. I don't understand why they are going backwards if they are about to go full time HD. Very strange.
I'd say we'll have it by the end of the year at the latest.
But didn't I hear somewhere that Turner and D* had some partnerships or something?

I was looking at TBS as another source of HD Movies with commercials. I am hoping that the movies shown on TBS are different than those shown on TNT.
Neither was Hogans Heroes, but I think any show shot on film could be transfered to HD.
and will it be mirrored on 61.5?
I would assume it will be but by then if not by next week I should be pointed at 4 birds and have all bases covered

Anything shot and EDITED on film. Last twenty or more years, shows have been shot on film, transfered to tape, then edited. Those shows would have to re-assembled from original film negative, so I don't see that happening too much, except for hits like Seinfeld. And any tape originated sitcom, i.e. Cosby, will never see the light of HD (and for the most part, thank goodness!)
For me Tbs HD = Yawn! LOL I kind of want MHD! Allthough im not going to complain about any hd they add
I'm holding my breath for Gilligan's Island and Green Acres in HD!
You'll probably get your wish.
TBS-HD isn't exactly high on my list either, but every HD channel added puts pressure on the networks that haven't converted yet.
If it is in the odd stretch version like TNT, I would rather not even have the channel. Every time I look at TNT I just have to change the channel. I do not see how they can possibly think that stretched HD is in any way shape or form better than just black bars or even color bars like ESPN does... If I want to stretch the image I have a button for that.
Original productions
Except for the original productions (The Closer & Heartland ) I never tune into TNT. TBS may be the same way. When it hits E* we will find out.
