There's already a thread about Survivor going HD in the fall. Now, COPS (which currently airs in SD widescreen) and Sesame Street have also announced that they will air in HD beginning in the upcoming season (SS premieres in HD on August 11, no date yet for COPS).
Edited to add yet another show making the HD jump:
Oprah's production company also announced today that her syndicated show will begin airing in HD in the fall.

Sesame Street, Cops, ESPN and more rolling out HD with Sony
Sony's NAB 2008 announcements continue to roll out, hope you didn't think Survivor and OLED were the only items getting a touch of its HD DNA, because Fox Widescreen standby Cops is going real HD for its 21st season courtesy of Sony's XDCAM technology. Just like Survivor, the rugged disc-based system makes it easy for producers to make the HD upgrade. While PBS' sets may not be as rough as the mean streets, we can still appreciate the news that Sesame Street has switched to HD with a whole new studio based on Sony's equipment that will also see use in several other projects on the way. Finally, ESPN has stayed ahead of the curve on high definition, and is putting the company's tech to work in its L.A. Live studio. Big Bird, extreme sports and repeat criminal offenders? Our HDTVs say bring it on.
