    I like the show. But didn't think it should be on a movie channel. I'm sure a network/cable service will pick it up. But with commercial breaks.

    I haven't seen the show in about 10 years, since that's when my cable company started requiring a converter to subscribe to HBO. It probably cost HBO a fortune to produce this show since all of the game footage came from NFL films. Someone told me about 10 years ago that NFL Films charges $200/second for rights to use clips in another show and that fee has almost certainly gone up since then.

    Is Len Dawson still on the show?

    I always thought it was fun to watch just because of the narrated highlights with in game voices added to it.
