Did you miss "Twilight" during its blockbuster theatrical run? How about during its initial best-selling DVD release? Seriously, what are you waiting for? TV? Well, Showtime finally has a premiere date for you.
 
The premium cable network has announced that "Twilight" will have its television premiere on Saturday, Jan. 23, 2010.
 
This would be the first film in Stephenie Meyer's teen vampire franchise, the one that made $191 million in its domestic launch last fall.
 
It's not to be confused with "The Twilight Saga: New Moon," which opens on Nov. 20 in theaters. And it's not to be confused with "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse," which recently finished shooting and will open on June 30, 2010.
 
Seriously, who hasn't seen "Twilight" already? We guess this might welcome a whole new audience to the romantic yearning between Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson). Or something.

    • Seriously...January 23rd? I've been waiting and waiting for this movie to come out on premium channels and it takes THIS long? Why? Do other movies take this long (14 months) to come out on cable? Maybe it's just me.
