It’s amazing how diversified the HDTV content is on TV right now. Take tonight for example: Baseball (the last before the All-Star break), reality TV, crime drama, fantasy and driving down a super slick icy road for a living. How that’s for variety in TV viewing, and all in HD.

The new Law & Order:CI (this writer loves the addition of Jeff Goldblum in the show) and In Plain Sight are airing tonight, along with HBO’s new “killer” lineup of True Blood, the amusing new series Hung and the season debut of Entourage.

Blu-Ray releases for this week: The trend is good

The trend is definitely up when it comes to Blu-Ray and new releases for the platform, and all it takes is looking at this week’s releases to confirm this fact. It heralds good things for the future of pure HD as a platform to watch movies.

The highlights of this weeks schedule: Valkyrie, the Tom Cruise movie, the release of Terminator 2 in a special version (to celebrate the release of the new Terminator movie in theaters), the TV series True Blood and 24 in new editions for Blu-Ray, and releases of modern classics Changing Lanes (underrated movie) and the Tim Burton ‘Batman’.

So welcome to the revolution of Blu-Ray; the time is now, it seems. More releases here.
