Game Shows in High Definition

inturnaround:
We got a new HDTV for Christmas at our house and one of the channels is called inHD. It's basically a 24 hour mishmash of programs in High Definition so you can demo HD. One of the shows is a local show from WRAL (Raleigh-Durham, I believe) called "Brain Game". It's shown in widescreen High Definition. The show is basically a teen quiz show featuring NC high school students, but AFAIK, it's the first and only game show in high definition.

Are there any others out there? Does anyone know of any others that plan to make the leap to HD soon? TPiR would be amazing in HD, I would think and CBS is a leader in HD programming.

inHD is available on almost all Comcast systems across the country that have a HD package. It's free with a digital package.

Didn't Double Dare 2000 show a few eps in HDTV format?

 I'm not sure how they would because there is no Nickelodeon HD channel and Nick has never done anything else in HD. But I have no definitive knowledge of it one way or another.

cyberjoek:
I can verify the fact that Double Dare 2k did 5 episodes in HDTV.  These were done because of several cable company requests, they wanted the programing for HDTV displays so Nick complied (in our area the first showings of each episode the ad breaks were just infomerchials for AT&T HDTV)

 Huh, that's interesting. Were these for broadcast on a demo channel or were they simply for the demo setup at the office?
