David Attenborough: Planet Earth or Life. Programs like this are the only reason I have found to warrant a HDTV.

The other reason i find is some of the space documentaries, like the stephen hawking ones or universe, look abosolutely stunning in HD.

I love Stephen Hawking's books, but I often find his documentaries disappointing. Especially his latest 'Stephen Hawking's Universe', I thought it largely just pandered to what people want to hear and not what should be heard, if that makes sense.
