Here in Austin they replaced it with Oprah, followed by one of the Lethal Weapons episodes. Disgusting. I wrote the local affiliate (KVUE) and asked them why they couldn't run a similar movie, eg. The Longest Day, Battle of the Bulge,etc...
Hey, Mel Gibson plays a veteran in the Lethal Weapon movies. He was a sniper during Vietnam, and a damn good one at that!
