" Unfortunately, as they got underway, a lot of them have just been an excuse to re-present or resell films that are already in heavy rotation on TCM."
Too bad, but that does seem to be the case. I had hoped, if they give a 'spotlight', it would be on more unusual subjects. (the Australian Cinema was the treat for me) Mentioned in other threads were animated films (& shorts) or foreign horror films.
Any other suggestions??

this actor worked as a lifeguard and a radio announcer before getting into the movies. in a pair of films directed by a future tv talk show director, he acted with a chimp.
he would meet his future wife when they costarred in a naval drama.
later he would leave film acting to become a spokesman for general electric.
then he did other stuff that made him world famous.
so wazzzat Ronnie Reagan??
