Subject: What is the most aired movie/s of all time?
Written By: red06 on 09/18/09 at 9:24 pm
Hi all
Thought it would be fun to discuss this,
What is the most aired / syndicated movie/s of all time?
Network TV and local TV only.
Not sure if there is a definitive answer to this question...maybe someone from Nielsen Ratings can help us.

Being a bit older, I can think of plenty of other ones.
The 10 Commandments
It's A Wonderful Life
The Wizard Of Oz
The Greatest Story Ever Told
The Sound Of Music
The Pink Panther
Goldfinger
These routinely were shown at least once a year on at least one of the "Big 3" networks. And since the growth of independent TV stations in the 1980's, were shown on them a lot too before cable took over.
The Wizard Of Oz was aired once a year on American TV, from 1959 through today (except during the years 1963 , 1995, and 1997). In 2002 it was shown 5 times. Then in 2007 it was shown 7 times. This is because Ted Turner had a new master created, and he owns WTBS (which in addition to being a cable channel, is also a broadcast station in Atlanta).
