Logo is taking the anti-Valentine’s tack with a prime time block on the 14th called “Logo’s Bloody Valentine’s Thursday,” says Marc Leonard, Logo TV’s Senior Vice President of Multiplatform Programming. The reason? “Romantic movies have not done fantastically well for us,” says Leonard. “Our audience likes fun and entertainment.” Hence their decision to run Idle Hands and then a three-hour presentation of Interview with a Vampire, which earned a .16 rating on the fledgling network the last time it ran. “It’s one of the five highest-rated movies of all time for us,” Leonard says.
