 Is "4-20" Goin' Mainstream?

After surfing the TV channels today on 4-20, I noticed that a lot of channels are in support of this awesome underground holiday. I found 3 channels which "greened up" their logos for this special day* : G4, USA, and SciFi.
*Note: Both SciFi and USA channel both have WHITE as their default channel logo color, but today is an obvious exception...
G4 is probubly the most obvious supporter of everything 4-20 (weed, stoners, drug humor, etc.). There line-up was something like "Half-Bake" the movie, world permire of "Super High Me" and a special "Attack of the Show" where the hosts travel to Humblodt county and Australia to check out the grow op's and ask people why legalization never happened for Australians. They even displayed a "warning banner" before playing "Half-Baked" that states they "don't condone the use of Drugs" (see below). Can't be more obvious than that.
Well, here's some screen shots I took of those 3 channels on U.S. TV which appear to be support of this wonderful weed holiday:
G4 on 4-20:
On USA:
On SciFi:
On Comedy Central (one of my favorite channels on TV), took a more subtle approach to celebrating/supporting "4-20 Day".
They didn't "green-up" they're logo, instead they played one weed-related movie with my favorite
2 stoner buddies: "Cheech & Chong" in a movie I've never heard of. Pretty vague, but still a pretty clear reference.
There could be more channels, but these are the ones with the most obvious support of the holiday with their choice in color for their logo.
If there are any international members of The Growery know of any cable/satelite TV channels in their country (besides the U.S.) that are clearly supporting 4-20, please share your broadcasted culture with us.
So, What do you think? Is "4-20" becoming more mainstream in American culture? In the World?
