"Earth" on the Discovery Channel did it for me. The problem with not
getting HDTV is that a lot of channels are HD channels squeezed into
analog. If you want the real pictures you have to have HD to see
everything. Get at least a 24" for the bedroom, 40" minimum for the parlor.

The smaller screen will have a better picture . REAL 1080P HDTV is
still a dream . For giggles, just look at Foxy Network-- 720P is the
maximum they broadcast . Even PBS ( ! ) is much more advanced,
despite all the cuts in funding .

720P is superior to 1080i for fast action (fewer artifacts). You only
get 1080p very rarely in the real world. Not worth a big premium.
