(sigh) To think that it was once that special. Now that crap Spike TV channel runs those movies all the time.

Yeah Spike loves to play them to death like TV stations used to do years ago with It's a Wonderful Life being aired everyday till Christmas

I remember the USA network got the original Star Wars Trilogy and showed it every Christmas.A long time ago Disny Channel Showed A New Hope as well.

Yeah I remember it was 1990 and A New Hope was all but forgotten about.Unless you had the VHS tape it wasn't played on TV.Then Disney showed it.I rememeber it being like 7 years since I had seen it on TV at that point so I watched it the night it aired

oh wow! that was cool, first time i ever saw that.

I personally like it when Spike TV does a marathon for Star Wars cause I usually will sit and watch them most of the time.

I think Showtime ran ESB and ROTJ back in 1992 or 93.NBC ran ESB and ROTJ a few times as well.Of course it was the original versions.

I remenber it was CBS that first showed Star Wars on free tv back I think in 1985 Then I hadn't watched it again till 1990 when the Disney Channel showed it

 

I had the movie on video but it was a different time in my life where I had a life and had friends and hung out at bars...Boy did that change
