You would at least think it would be carried on Turner Classic Movies channel, given it was a Turner production (one of the best things to come out or Turner Broadcasting).

Yeah, you would think so. I agree it was really well done. I noticed the History/Hitler/Reality Channel had a 1 hour show on Gettysburg at 2 p.m. today. Caught just a few minutes. They were really pushing the economics of slavery in the South. Wish I had seen more. Around 1995 I was kayaing on the Ocoee River in TN when I met a dentist from Atlanta. He told a story of going to the Fox Theater on Peachtree Street in Atlanta to see "Gettysburg" when it first showed. He said he went to the facility for some relief and recognized Ted Turner at the adjacent urinal. Beaking the man code, he said he complimented Turner on the film. Ted replied that it had been a long term project of his.
