Anyone watch a lot of HBO as a kid...back in the eighties?
Back before VCR's hit the market..when, aside from watching 4,5,7 and 11, you only had HBO for your movie-watching pleasure. Maybe Showtime and Skinemax, but they didn't seem to have anywhere near the market-share that HBO had.
Anyway, due to their limited inventory of movies or whatever, it was the same movies over and over...if it wasn't Elephant Man, it was the Terry Fox Story, and if it wasn't either of those, it was Mommy Dearest. There were a couple others, but I'm having a hard time recalling...
The Terry Fox story was one of their own productions, maybe they were proud of it, but that damn movie was on seemingly every day, sometimes multiple times a day. I grew to hate that Terry Fox bastard, but I had that movie pretty much memorized anyway.
Trying to think of a couple of the other movies...anyone a couch potato as a kid that can remember HBO's repetitiveness?
