SpikeTV is having a Bond marathon today. I caught the end of FRWL on my lunch break at work. Thunderball began at noon and will be followed by YOLT and DAF, and The Untouchables at 8 p.m.

Their big thing is they are showing these uncut. But not in widescreen. But they are showing these in three-hour blocks, which must mean almost an hour's worth of commercials for most of them.

The strange thing is I didn't think Spike TV still had rights to the series, just AMC. I guess not.

It seems like the Bonf film TV rights have been switching back and forth or are being shared by SPIKE and AMC, although AMC seems to only show a select few.
