It depends on what you're watching and what you're looking for. There are certain things that are unmistakably superior in HD. When we visited the mousepod abode, CP and I happily stared at his HD screen showing nothing but a static (as in no camera motion, it was a moving picture) shot of a creek with a little bit of running water...and we were sober! It was truly amazing.

Watching sitcoms...not so much.

Watching sports, I've found to be a mixed bag and depends greatly on the quality and type of HD tv. For example, on an LCD, the field looks amazing and you can really see things clearly...until the play starts. The pixel refresh rate on LCD is just too slow to keep up with the fast pace and to my eye, football players in motion look worse on an LCD HD tv than on a standard definition tube television. Plasma and DLP doesn't have that problem that I've noticed.
