My Name is Earl and Desperate Housewives - new seasons in HD

More excited about the former than the latter but here's the details.

All listings are for C4HD.

My Name is Earl season 3 begins in HD Thursday 20th March, 22:00.

EDIT: It seems both the Sky EPG and Digiguide were incorrect as it disappeared from my planner and it is now showing one week later,

Thursday 27th March, 22:00


Desperate Housewives;

Sunday 23rd March, 23:45 - repeat of last episode of season 3 "Getting Married Today" - this time in HD

Weds 26th March, 22:00 - Season 4 begins in HD.

Good to see My Name is Earl back and in HD, wish Digiguide did a Mac version, I feel so behind the times lately.

Good call, that's in my planner too.

Haven't read any reviews on it though, just seen the trailers.

Re: My Name is Earl and Desperate Housewives - new seasons in HD

Cool - I've been in "suspense" for so long waiting to find out what happened to Edie at the end of S3 of DH. I suppose I can Hang On for another week though.

No sign of Ugly Betty returning though

Well I don't know what is going on people but Earl has disappeared from my planner and the EPG !!!

As I type, if you currently search on this forums TV Guide;

http://www.avforums.com/forums/view_tvguide.htm

and presumably on Digiguide too you will find the following description of what was until earlier today on at 10pm Thursday.


My Name Is Earl
(Sitcom)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time - 22:00 to 22:30 (30 minutes long).
When - Thursday 20th March on Channel 4 HD


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My Name is Inmate 28301-016 (Part 1 of 2). Series 3, episode 1.
The multi-award-winning US comedy returns as Earl sets off on another string of adventures in an attempt to atone for the wrongdoings of his past, with a little help from his dim-witted brother Randy, crazy ex-wife Joy and sexy motel maid Catalina. Having falsely confessed to a crime on Joy's behalf, Earl is sentenced to two years in prison. And Joy agrees to look after Randy, who is helpless without Earl.
Starring: Jason Lee, Ethan Suplee, Jaime Pressley, Nadine Velazquez
(New Series, High Definition, Audio Described, 2007, PG, 4 Star)

___________________

I hope the latest development is a mistake in the EPG and it is still on !!!

Re: My Name is Earl and Desperate Housewives - new seasons in HD

As per the above, Earl is definitely back on the EPG at the moment as I added it to my planner last night.

For those needing a refresher the last episode of season 2 is repeated in SD in the early hours of tomorrow morning,

00:20, Sat, C4HD (upscaled SD).

Re: My Name is Earl and Desperate Housewives - new seasons in HD

Well I've been enjoying Earl in HD ....

Can't believe it's been running since March.

Anyway it's DISAPPEARED off the planner and there's still SIX episodes of the series left



Tried looking on the AVF TV Guide, but it only shows until the 4th of July.

Could anyone with Digiguide confirm what is going on please !!!

Cheers.

There's no airing on 3 July but on 10 July it's episode 17. Digiguide doesn't have any Ch4 listings for beyond that at the mo.

Can't comment personally as to where the episodes are up to, as I have the last 5 stacked up in my planner to watch, but I can confirm what jolly said. Last week and this week were back to back episodes.

How odd.

When I checked the AVF TV Guide last night it was only showing listings up to the 3rd of July (not 4th as I said earlier).

Pleased to see that it will be returning for the last 6 episodes, albeit with a week's break.

Cheers.
