Star Wars on Spike TV

[stargater]

I've known about this for awhile but just started seeing ads for it on other channels, Spike TV is showing all 6 Star Wars movies!

Why is this so cool? It's not like I couldn't put in the DVDs and watch them at any time but for some reason there's just something cooler about watching it as it airs on TV. Especially the original trilogy, I love seeing it on TV and it's not played nearly as much as I think it should be. So yay!

Here's the schedule:

Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace - Friday, April 4 (8:00 - 11:00 PM, ET/PT; Encore Saturday, April 5 (5:00 - 8:00 PM, ET/PT) & Sunday, April 20 (8:00 - 11:00 PM, ET/PT & 11:00 PM - 2:00 AM, ET/PT)

Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones - Saturday, April 5 (8:00 - 11:00 PM, ET/PT); Encores Sunday, April 6 (4:30 - 8:00 PM, ET/PT) & Sunday, April 27 (8:00 - 11:00 PM, ET/PT & 11:00 PM, ET/PT & 11:00 PM - 2:00 AM, ET/PT)

Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith - Sunday, April 6 (8:00 - 11:00 PM, ET/PT); Encore Monday, April 7 (4:30 - 8:00 PM, ET/PT)

cool :) just curious for your benefit: Is Spike in HD?

[stargater.livejournal.com]

Yes, though it's not available here yet as a dedicated HD channel (like say TNTHD or NGCHD) but sometimes some things do play in a higher quality (Sci-Fi is the same way) than others. I'm guessing it'll be the same for this and it'll probably look good. :D
