Films on TV?

Have you guys manged to get any of your films on TV? Cable or Local Network? What did you have to do to get them on? Who did you meet? ect.

Just wanted to see if anyone had any sucess with this. I havn't tried it yet, but I think it would be fun to try. :)
 
TV Distribution through itvs.org

If you're trying to find both financing AND TV distribution, maybe itvs.org can help. They will fund and help distribute your film through nationwide PBS and local PBS affiliates. If your flick has a social issue / commentary, liberal or conservative, they are an option. [That's their line, although I would bet that they will be far more receptive to a liberal-slanted proposal...] They fund from $30k-$350k. You apply for funding on a bi-annual schedule - check out www.itvs.org for the official word...

Warning: I was co-producing a documentary that was turned down for funding because my subject was too mainstream [It's about the kids' perspective on a troubled-youth camp in Glendale, shot American-High Style.]
