I love TCM as well and really would enjoy them playing Its a Wonderful instead of NBC. I really enjoy the movie around Christmas time and can not get enough of watch it up until Christmas day. One year I thought I saw another station along with NBC playing Its a Wonderful Life around the same time because I remember trying to watch it on both station, that is how much I love watching the movie around Christmas time. I think they can not play Its a Wonderful life enough and think they should play it the entire month of December so that everyone would get a chance to see it. It has a very very meaningful story line, and I think if everyone live by this movie, than there would be less sucides. I think everyone life has a meaning, the key is to knowing what and believe in God to know that you were born for a reason.
