Annabeth Gish ("The X-Files") guest stars as Elizabeth, Bartlet's oldest daughter.

Many have written in asking if Bravo HD is on DirecTV or DISH. It is not. Will it be? You can bet that NBC will be negotiating for carriage. DirecTV is now leaning forward into HDTV as is DISH having recognized that what they have carried and do carry in HDTV has attracted good paying customers from the ranks of cable. Cable is not sitting still and is seeking to gain these clients back so they too cannot overlook a program source  that comes with the reputation of BRAVO and their parent company, NBC/GE. I have been tols that the big events around the world will be presented on BRAVO.
