Hi Phyllis: you can check the Hallmark Channel schedule at http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/hachi/about to see if, and when, it will be screened on television. In addition, Amazon.com offers the film so you can see it anytime. I receive many emails from people who view Hachi over and over again! Thanks for asking, and hope this helps.
