There was a time when I referred to WTBS as the "Overboard" channel because they ran that movie constantly.

Also A christmas story, Its a wonderful Life, and Miracle at the end of the year. They play them way to much.

Yeah I'll always watch Goodfellas

I think It's a Wonderful Life has to be at the top of this list

I think the most played movie on television in history is The Shawshank Redemption.

Back in the late 90's Forrest Gump was replayed like 10,000 times

My first Christmas vacation home from college, HBO ran Ghostbusters and Red Dawn on a loop. A lot folks like those movies — and they're both decent movies — but I can't sit through either of them.

I remember when I got HBO ages ago they kept replaying a movie called Raggedy Man over and over and over.

Think that was back in in the 80's

I don't notice overrun movies like I used to because of the DVR, watching cable news and DVD/blu rays to watch.

I also have to want to see the movie really bad to watch it on G4, scify, Spike so I hardly ever check channels like that out.

To this day I absolutely cannot stand either of those movies.

As much I could complain about TBS, it use to show classic cartoons all the time back in the '80s. It showed not only many of the older Scooby Doo cartoons but also had Jonny Quest, Superfriends 73, Challenge of the Superfriends and many other older hanna-barbara cartoons. I never got tired of them.

They were also bad about showing some of the John Wayne movies to much also. I think True Grit was one that played twice a week when there wasnt a baseball game on.

ION (the statin I'm at is an affiliate), every Steven Segal Movie from the 90's. Also the Fugitive with Harrison Ford. There are more but they haven't gotten on my nerve yet. We are actualy looking into changing our affiliation to METV. Speaking of which I would like to get some opinions on that.

Forrest Gump. I happened to see it opening weekend and thought something like "that was a fun summer movie". It go so much attention and praise and it's been quoted and referenced so much that I don't think I could ever watch it again.
