UPDATE: This deal was officially announced by the two companies Monday.
It hasn't been officially announced, but posters to several Internet message boards are reporting that TNT HD launched on Comcast late last week in time for the first round of the National Basketball Association's playoff games. Comcast HD subscribers in Atlanta, Detroit, Indianapolis, Nashville and Washington, D.C. report being able to watch TNT HD, which in addition to the NBA also airs programming such as "Law & Order," professional golf and theatrical movies in high-def.
TNT HD is now carried on Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks on cable, and DISH Network on satellite. I was personally a little surprised that DIRECTV didn't reach a carriage deal by the start of the NBA playoffs, which DISH did a year ago. Two more basketball games air tonight, with the Indiana Pacers and Boston Celtics facing off at 7:00pm EDT and the Dallas Mavericks taking on the Houston Rockets at 9:30pm EDT.
