I don't pay extra for TCM to begin with, so the question is moot for me.

And there was "Give Me Shelter".
I thought it was GIMME SHELTER.

The career of Midler's character in the film didn't really parallel Raye's in many particulars other than the USO service, in my opinion.
You mean Raye told D!CK JOKES?

That's an old Ed Sullivan clip that shows a not really too animated Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman, Brian Jones, and Keith Richards at work.
Ladies and Gentleman, it's Mick Jagger (AKA "Mr. Showmanship") and the Zombies.
For a band called The Rolling Stones, only one of them is doing any rolling . . . and rocking.
On an altogether different note, I always thought that there was a resemblance between Mick Jagger and actress Andrée Melly.
Yeah, but you gotta admit. Keith, Brian and Bill were noticeably more animated than Charlie.
Oh, as for Jagger----
I usually saw a resemblance between him and a "Parent Trap" era HAYLEY MILLS.

It's DR. LO!! NOT Dr. LAO( to rhyme with "now")!
I know the 'muricans in the movie pronounced the name to rhyme with "ow", or"wow", but the venerable Doctor pronounced it "LO" as in "Lo and behold". And as it IS the character's own name, we can assume HE is pronouncing it correctly, right? Or....
Is it OK with you if I pronounce YOUR name as "Mew-ller"?
Yeah, I know I'm a tad late with this, but something kept me from posting it yesterday. And it's just ONE MORE on the huge pile of things that Eddie does that annoys me.

Here's an old Ed Sullivan clip that shows a not really too animated Watts at work.
While providing a solid and competent beat in most Stones tunes, and the group achieving equal success, Watts somehow didn't generate the same "drummer love" that The Beatles' Ringo did despite both being equally competent at their craft.

Cripes MAT. TB was just being facetious and teasing with you a little. And to both of you I'll just say...
REMEMBER.
This is a thread created to posthumously celebrate the birthday of MARTHA RAYE. NOT a discussion of whose movies will be watched by anyone 50 years from now, or who made movies at what studio that TCM can't get rights to show. So let's celebrate this way....

And to my surprise, I didn't notice DOG DAY AFTERNOON scheduled on TCM anytime yesterday!
Of course though, i didn't check the schedule from midnight on....

Hard to believe anyone could prefer John Wayne to Alex Cord in a western.
Well, either one is a better choice than KRIS KRISTOFFERSON playing The Ringo Kid in that '86 made-for-TV fiasco.

You want "classic" show themes? If this was posted already, I apologize.

I went back over all the posts, but didn't see anything about THIS "fun" Western.....

Personally, I didn't find the lyrics to be that "racy" or "suggestive". But then, maybe my mind is in a different gutter.

Maybe they're trying to make the point that horror films can air year round, not just in October.
Personally I wish they'd air some Christmas movies during other times of the year so that December can be freed up for a mix of genres...holiday films as well as other stuff.
CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT (1945) was released by Warner Brothers in August 1945 not December.
Paramount released WHITE CHRISTMAS (1954) in October 1954 not December. Etc.
And beloved Christmas classic MIRACLE ON 34th STREET was released June 11th of 1947.
But of course, TCM ain't showing that one anytime soon far as I know.

I do like OUR MISS BROOKS. Eve Arden is always a joy to watch.
I noticed in the opening credits the movie was directed by AL LEWIS who was also credited as co-writer. I had to check it out. But apparently a different Al Lewis, and not the one who was Grandpa on The Munsters or in CAR 54 WHERE ARE YOU, as Wiki doesn't list any writing or directing credits in his cinematography.

Yes, next to Val Kilmer's depiction in TOMBSTONE, probably the best portrayal of Doc Holliday on screen (of course this is just MY opinion).
I've noticed there's been no love for WYATT EARP, which came out the following year after TOMBSTONE with Kevin Costner as Earp and Dennis Quaid as Holliday. As with ROBIN HOOD PRINCE OF THIEVES, it's watchable not for Costner, but for the rest of the cast (Quaid, Gene Hackman as Earp's father, Mark Harmon, Michael Madsen, Bill Pullman, etc).
Seems to me(as with his performance in WYATT EARP) Costner's screen presences slightly before then has a quality that induces me to keep looking for the MARIONETTE strings!

(...and btw...so it seems we can now add this Zorro outfit to the list of toys that I had back in the day and that you didn't, eh?!)
LOL
Yep. And probably a long list as my parents didn't believe in over indulgence of children.

SONG, sure, but The Munsters theme being an instrumental did "rock" somewhat more.... (I posted earlier, but will repeat.)

I have to admit I liked both shows. And both of their themes. But you gotta admit----
THE MUNSTERS had the way cooler car!

Maybe they're rushing things, like other places are...
Just yesterday I noticed the store where I do my grocery shopping already has Halloween candy for sale!

And what about that bit concerning Johnny Carson and Mrs. Arnold Palmer on Carson's "Who Do You Trust" game show in the late '50's?

Not that Cagney didn't have chemistry with Olivia in the 2 films they made together (particularly THE STRAWBERRY BLONDE) but she and Flynn were a match made in cinema heaven, without a doubt.
Yep. And according to David Niven, Flynn and Olivia had that chemistry often OFF screen as well.
I never saw Flynn's ROBIN HOOD until I was an adult. And like DARG, I too grooved on Disney's ZORRO TV show. And MY introduction to ROBIN HOOD was around the same time.
Never had that Zorro mask though.

I'm reminded of a Richard Belzer gag years ago on SNL where he jabbed at unhip wedding band singers, trying to be "hip" singing ----
"I can't get any......satisfaction."
