Thanks for this list - always helpful and interesting - though it
seems that the more marathons of this type there are, the less
interesting they are. Where is the Star Trek marathon, at least? TNT
seems to be doing a mini-marathon of The Çloser (when did they last do
the Full Monty on L&O - was that last New Year's?).

There was some interest in seeing 30 on 30 reruns expressed last
month, so this news is particularly welcome. Thiis is more of a
mini-marathon (4 hours) and is what my TiVo will be watching for me
while I waste time in non-tv activities with family and friends. Here
is what my TiVo guide has (times Pacific):

12:00 - King's Ransom (Trade of Gretsky from Oilers to the Kings
1:00 - Muhammad and Larry (Ali-Holmes 1980 fight)
2:00 - Without BIas (death of Len Bias)
3:00 - Small Potatoes (Impact of the USLF)

>From what I can tell, 6 of these have aired already (the 4 above plus
"The Band That Wouldn't Die" (not sure what that is about - the
Stanford Band?) and the one on Jimmy the Greek (both of these will be
re-run on New Year's Day). There is also on on The U, which must be
about Miami, and I can't tell if that has already run, or will run for
the first time at the start of December. I saw a piece on Reggie
Miller and Spike Lee the other day while watching an NBA game - Lee is
working on an episode now on Miller, and it looks like it will be
aired in March.

Here is the schedule (not as helpful as you might think) on ESPN:
