setting up my Tivo Series 3...what are the absolute best shows in HD?

ok, I've been using DirecTV Tivos for years now(non HD boxes) and have been getting my HD fix with Comcast. being that I hate to watch anything live, I, on many, many occasions will just record the SD feed so I can watch on my time. this is no longer an issue as I just purchased a Tivo Series 3. I am using this box for basically HD only. below is a list of the newtwork shows that we record with the shows already added to the Tivo marked. what are the other shows I should add?

king of queens
csi: miami - added
simpsons
the o.c.
my name is earl - added
Jericho
til death
lost
24 - added
prison break - added
house
bones
csi
las vegas - added
medium
desperate housewives
criminal minds
csi: ny
standoff
the unit
war at home
family guy
american dad
heroes
american idol
veronica mars
gilmore girls
according to jim
reba
cops
how i met your mother
2 1/2 men
new adventures of old christine
smallville
supernatural
ghost whisperer
shark
without a trace


now we don't need to see every show in HD even if its broadcast that way. ie; does anyone want to see some of those trailer park folk from Cops in full blown HD?

The CSI's Las Vegas particulalrly are the absolutly most beautiful HD shows out there.

American Idol looks great, and NEEDS the 5.1 sound, but they fuck up the mix alot

Lost looks great in HD

House and Heroes to round it out

BTW, now that you can record HD, start looking into some of the truely stunning PBSHD offerings

I am a regularly viewer of Rick Steves' Europe; Rudy Maxa's Smart Travels; and Austin City Limits. That is if my signal is strong enough - unfortunately it's the most problematic one in the area.
