There's been quite a few, but it matters your taste. Ken Burns The Civil War is great. I recently watched Shogun, it was edited down to movie length but I still enjoyed it for what it was. I think the Republic serials are a lot of fun, although not television mini-series like Merlin, they are made to be watched in episodes and are perfect for the laser format. |

Stephen King's The Stand is a good one. I guess the extended edition box set of Gettysburg would count as it is longer than the theatrical cut (over 4 hours!) and aired on TV over 3 days. As far as I know, this cut is as yet unavailable on DVD/Blu-ray. |

Oliver Stone's Wild Palms, it's sort of in the vein of Twin Peaks. |

Just picked up the langoliers from local private sale with 8 other movies and a sony ld player for $15. It is in mint condition. I have seen it on tv before. Now im interested in miniseries and made for tv movies. But getting this one so cheap will spoil my future purchases |

Check out "Fatal Vision"- a very good two-part miniseries. |

If the film inserts still exist, it might be worth it to make an up-scaled version using the PAL transform decoder - or at least a Doctor Who Restoration Team-style DVD re-release. |
