I don't get it. I have the "everything" package that includes YES. However, I cannot get YES (right now), but I can get NESN.

Program not available in your area. ????????????

Sci-Fi HD.... if only they had some decent programming left to show HD on... BTW, is anything on Sci-Fi actually shot in high-def? I'd doubt it, they're too cheap for that- except for maybe the wrestling... (note my sarcasm)

LOL, I am the exact opposite. I can get YES but not NESN. They always do this to me for like a first run baseball game. Even with the sports package they restrict main events to only my viewing zone, MASN. Tune in early, get the pre-show then all of sudden channel not available or purchased...

Battlestar Galactica, Eureka, Stargate Atlantis, and Pain Killer Jane are all shot in HD. There are others but those were the ones I could think of at the top of my head.

I'm glad Sci-Fi is now HD, it's been a long time coming!

But what good is Sci-Fi HD with 20 year old shows?

All this HD stuff is just a waste of bandwidth in my opinion and an excuse to charge more $$$..

I am perfectly happy with a standard picture.... (Even a 0db analog picture (Perfectly clear) is good enough to me)

But if the technology is available to change the viewing expeirence, why not utilize it. If you're going to watch tv, then you might as well utilize the best you have which is High Definition.

YES Fixed

I called D* yesterday PM. Explained the situation and that this has been going on for a long time. Tech disappears for a while to "check something". I get disconnected.

Flipped to 622 and there is YES in HD. I think my account was messed up.
