It's been an annual tradition

I'm half watching it and half on Internet! Happy Easter!

They don't play it on TV for Easter.

They play it for Passover, which just frequently happens to overlap with Easter because of the similar timing that is used in determining the dates for both.

But not always aligned. Here in 2024, Passover doesn't start until April 22 and here it is Easter March 31. ABC is going for ratings not accuracy. It is a good movie.

Or is Disney owned ABC playing the Moses movie on the eve of Easter out of spite for Christians and Jesus?

Superb movie anyway, no matter what day it's shown.

Yet the true Easter is May 5th this year.

Proving my point. Happy Easter, soon, Mr. Orthodox.
