HD doses of ‘Jericho,’ ‘Lawrence of Arabia’
Big weekend in high-def homes. First comes Universal HD’s first-season marathon of “Jericho,” the fan fave starting its second season on CBS Tuesday night at 10 (Feb. 12).
“Jericho” on Universal HD runs from Saturday 10 p.m. to Sunday 8 p.m. (Feb. 9-10), catching viewers up to speed on all the post-nuke drama. You can read all about second-season plans in Newsday’s Sunday feature story interview with producer Carol Barbee.
High-def homes with access to the HDNet Movies channel can also enjoy “Lawrence of Arabia” Sunday at 6:15 p.m. (Feb. 10). This is the restored director’s cut of the epic 1962 adventure with Peter O’Toole and Omar Sharif that made the AFI’s Top 100 Movies list at No. 5. The film repeats on HDNet Movies later Sunday night at 12:30 a.m. and four more times this month.
