Up-converting DVDs are making pixels where none exist. While it looks a little better, it's not nearly as good as watching a picture that's in native 1920x1080. My experiences with HDTV cable are amazing, but I only pick up the HD-exclusive channels out here (700s), and picture is always better on higher numbered stations.

Regardless, if the show is filmed and broadcasted in 1080i, it will look better than a DVD up-converted to 1080i. It would be worse than a HD-DVD though.
