Who Thought This Was A Good Idea? Part 1

The USA channel is showing the Indiana Jones movies consecutively this weekend, in preperation for the release of the 4th IJ movie. Who thought it was a good idea to show them in reverse chronological order? Maybe I'm the only one bothered by this. Of course, with a DVR I can watch them in any order I want, but still....

This seems to happen a lot with movie and TV series. The stations just show them in any old order. It's not like the information isn't there to do it right.

I remember an instance where the BBC was re-showing the Mrs. Bradley Mysteries. One of the continuing characters was revealed to be a murderer in the last episode. Guess what episode they showed among the first several aired that time. Yep.
