@texan176, I kinda wish KTRK would start doing the afternoon million dollar movies again, but they're not gonna do it, but oh well.

@rockergirl83 Indeed....I have seen a few films on 2.2

KTRK used to have the 3pm film and an 11pm film after nightline. They used to show movies all night on the weekends as well. Those were the days.

We now have netflix that streams movies on demand for $10 a month but it's not the same.

@sboudreaux27 :i'm from houston so i have very fond memories of the million dollar movie! hey by any chance are you related to bob boudreaux?

@texan176 Yeah, I remember coming home from school and finding a movie on. Good old days. Sometimes they aired blockbusters, and sometimes they aired flops. But they were entertaining. Nowadays, you can find those movies on the channel called "This". I LOVE THAT CHANNEL. Have you heard of it? It's Comcast 320 (I think) and regular tv channel 2.2.

This was before TV trash like talk shows and court shows that glorify the scum of humanity ruled day time TV.

KTRK actually showed some really good movies at 3pm.
