Big 80s weekend
It's Big 80s Weekend on the Encore cable TV network. (It's always Big 80s Weekend here at my house. I even like watching old football games from the 80s on ESPN Classic. I'm just waiting for one channel to show nothing but 80s movies, TV shows and sports.)
Starting Friday, Sept. 1 (sorry for the late notice), you can catch flicks such as Cocktail, Easy Money, Porky's and more. Check EncoreTV's website for exact schedules.
