July 4th Weekend 2014 TV Schedule: Over 26 Marathons To Watch July 4 - July 6

Happy Independence Day, our patriotic friends! July 4 is a day of country pride, fireworks and of course gathering around the barbeque with family and friends for a smorgasbord of summer treats.

But once you’re done stuffing yourself silly with hot dogs, burgers and red, white and blue-decorated cupcakes, why not settle down in front of the TV for an assortment of movies and marathons? Besides, this is the perfect way to waste that hour after you eat before taking a dip in the pool!
