I LOVE Discovery and TLC and

I LOVE Discovery and TLC and I know my 52" DLP set is just clamoring for their HD goodness on TWC. I feel so slighted watching Dirty Jobs and Mythbusters in lo-def.

Just out of curiousity,

Just out of curiousity, Tommy, do you ever actually watch Discovery HD Theater? I can't say I really ever do, as most of the shows I watch on Discovery are Dirty Jobs, Mythbusters, etc. I wish they'd just swap.

Wow, I can't believe Charter

Wow, I can't believe Charter beat TWC to the punch in adding Discovery HD. HD Theater was great for the first few months when I first got HD, but now it all seems old and recycled. (There still are a few good shows though) I rarely watch it anymore now that we have History and Nat Geo HD. Discovery HD is the last channel that I truly need.

Agreed, HD Theater is

Agreed, HD Theater is recycled. I would gladly trade in HD Theater for Discovery HD. Mythbusters is my favorite show on cable. Heck I'll trade in HD Theater and TBS HD for it. If TW were to add another HD channel this would have to be it.
