    If your movie is far longer than 3 hours, it’s practically a miniseries.

      The movie Gettysburg is 4 1/2 hours long. My wife and I couldn’t make it through it when we saw it in the theater.

      Lonesome Dove fits that bill and it’s fantastic.

      “Sometimes doing the right thing costs ya a few feet of good rope.”

      I need to go back and re watch that. Wonder if it ever made it off of VHS

        Old movies rarely make it to the big name paid streaming services, but I just checked and you can watch it for free on Tubi, PlutoTV, and Freevee.

        I don’t normally watch westerns, but I might check it out.
