    No more classic Planet of the Apes Movies and TV Series on our Cable TV?

    I've not seen classic POTA Movies and TV series on my Comcast Cable TV for a very long time...........

    I'm wondering what's going on... Anyone have seen them last year till this year yet?

    I think they'll showing up on any Holidays in couple of years later. For me, I think doubt it....

      Yea, one of the cable channels had them recently.

      I remember back in the '80s TBS would have a marathon almost every year with all six movies.

              Unless its in HD dont worry about it. I just watched Planet Of The Apes in HD on Netflix about a month ago. I COULD NOT BELEIVE how great it looked. Especially skin tones, the water and every sand granule during the 3 astronaut's journey through the forbidden Zone in the first 30 minutes! It's amazing how much we've been missing on standard quality dvd and tv. Makes me want to buy the Blu Ray!

                Definitely still in rotation; 1st movie in was on AMC HD just a week ago.

                And I'll echo the Bluray sentiments… completely new experience.

                Not sure if they are still cheapo, but Amazon had a killer sale on these around the holidays. Invest Ape Fans Invest.

                  Oh, right.

                  I have AMC on cable TV and checking what time, still not showing up... Maybe will be showing up in the middle of morning?

                    I don't pay much attention to if they are on anymore. I break out the blu rays when I want to see them

                      Oh, yeah! I went to the Wallmart and saw it has been restored and colorful like new. I'll get Blu Rays one someday.

                      I've not seen POTA yet for pass month.... There's still Star Wars on SPIKE channel, always....

                            I just saw the 5 pack of Planet of the Apes on bluray at my local Best Buy last weekend for $30. I already have the set with the hardcover book or I would've picked em up...and I agree, they look so much better in high definition.
