Some of us don't have the money for cable.

I noticed they aired "Snow White" too. Whatever happened to ABC airing Disney movies on Saturday nights?

Hallmark Channel owns the rights to a lot of Disney Movies. Shared between them and sister station Hallmark Movie Channel.

Or The Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday nights right before Ed Sullivan?

Someone realized it's not 1950 anymore?

LOL - wiseguy. Actually The Ed Sullivan Show was on from around the late forties until 1971. After Disney Dad got up, walked over to the TV set and turned the channel dial on your Muntz TV to Ed Sullivan, fooled with the rabbit ears for a few seconds, got a snack and came back to watch Ed Sullivan. Ed Sullivan was in radio for a good while too, before he was a TV star.

TCM has had Sundays with older live action Disney movies from the 50' to the 70's.

And Ed Sullivan is DEAD now... So, we need to move on to 2010.

Cable is expensive.

Michael Oher will probably wrap-up his career and retire from the NFL before The Blind Side
makes it to ABC Family. Rent the DVD from Netfilx and save yourself five years of cable bills!
