STAR WARS MARATHON
TBS, 7:30 a.m. ET
Beginning at 7:30 a.m. ET, and running all day and into prime time, TBS presents a full day of Star Wars movies. Its programming hook is the date: It’s May 4, an excuse for TBS to promote its Star Wars marathon as “May the Fourth Be With You.” The marathon begins with 1977’s Star Wars: A New Hope, which once was titled, simply, Star Wars. Personally, I worry when network publicity and programming departments stretch so far, and stoop so low, just to embrace a particular pun, and “May the Fourth Be With You” certainly upsets me a bit. In fact, I have to admit, it makes me very Tenth.
