Perhaps TCM can obtain the old commercials for Arthur Treacher's Fisn'n Chips and run them as well. Gee, won't that be fun?
-
Well, this is fine since TCM has shown all those numerous Universal and Paramount pre-Codes and reran them a half-dozen times. Oh, wait......
-
I am completely opposed to this. We have films shut away in vaults (many for decades) and this is supposed to be good news? I would also like to point out the most interesting period of The Tonight Show (the first 10 years at least, 1962-72) no longer exists, as those tapes were "wiped"...taped over as a cost-saving measure.

Somebody at TCM deserves a Gold Star for programming an Albert S. Rogell Birthday Fest. He or she is the one who will bring Universals to TCM.

All these and many, many more should be on TCM...MADAME SPY (Fay Wray), CHEATING CHEATERS (Fay Wray), THE COUNTESS OF MONTE CRISTO (Fay Wray), PRIVATE JONES (Lee Tracy), I LIKE IT THAT WAY (Gloria Stuart), THE LOVE CAPTIVE (Gloria Stuart), THE GREAT IMPERSONATION (Edmund Lowe), HALF A SINNER (Joel McCrea), NIGHT LIFE OF THE GODS (Alan Mowbray), SHE GETS HER MAN (ZaSu Pitts), AFFAIRS OF A GENTLEMAN (Paul Lukas), ONE EXCITING ADVENTURE (Binnie Barnes), CHINATOWN SQUAD (Lyle Talbot), DESTINATION UNKNOWN (Ralph Bellamy), AFRAID TO TALK (Eric Linden), SCANDAL FOR SALE (Charles Bickford), et al.

Although usually associated with Hal Roach Studios, Thelma made many films, appearing at every studio from MGM to Liberty and Monogram. There is no problem filling 24 hours...even without her famous 2-reel comedies.

> {quote:title=AndyM108 wrote:}{quote}I'd love to see a lot more Universals, but Hugh Herbert, not so much. Having seen about a dozen or so of the ones they've shown on TCM, it's hard to think of a bigger one trick pony. I loved him in the first few, but after that it was like watching an endless loop of the same film. I realize he's basically a comic actor, but he doesn't have the pure comic talent of a Fields or an Oliver Hardy, and he's not even close to having the higher comic skills of a Grant or a Hepburn, or a Lee Tracy for that matter. He's just kind of stuck there in a dated schtick, doing that goofy laugh like a nervous tic.
I think you may have missed my point. This is only marginally about Hugh Herbert. It IS about tons of long-unseen, long-unavailable Universal titles. I've post similar threads re Gloria Stuart, Evelyn Ankers, Chester Morris, Maria Montez, Olsen & Johnson and other Universal-related actors.
-
There's no bigger champion of rare Universals than I. But the silence from TCM is deafening.
-
Hopefully there are people paying attention who have the ability to make it happen.

Comedic actor Hugh Herbert was under contract to Universal and appeared in fourteen films during 1939-1942. Would love for these to show up on TCM...
THE FAMILY NEXT DOOR (1939)
LITTLE ACCIDENT (1939)
La CONGA NIGHTS (1940)
PRIVATE AFFAIRS (1940)
A LITTLE BIT OF HEAVEN (1940)
SLIGHTLY TEMPTED (1940)
MEET THE CHUMP (1941)
THE BLACK CAT (1941)
HELLO, SUCKER (1941)
BADLANDS OF DAKOTA (1941)
HELLZAPOPPIN' (1941)
DON'T GET PERSONAL (1942)
YOU'RE TELLING ME (1942)
THERE'S ONE BORN EVERY MINUTE (1942-film debut of Elizabeth Taylor)
Hugh also appeared in TOP OF THE TOWN (1937) and ONE TOUCH OF VENUS (1948) at Universal. Woo hoo!

Yes. There's more to movie watching than Andy Hardy, the Thin Man, North by Northwest, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, The Shop Around the Corner, Elvis Presley and war movies.

Thelma deserves it...as do her fans.

I'd like to see THE CAT CREEPS (1930) before I croak.
