"Don't waste your time trying to pull in that tcm website, Exeter." "I suppose you're right, Meacham."

THIS ISLAND EARTH but with no osborne sit-in with the still living Rex Reason. that's the way tcm wants it? okay. just seems to me that the great science fiction genre deserves better especially from such great professed hollywood devotees as tcm.

a good Vietnam movie choice imo is first blood.

I told ya! putting it back on sunday got it those ratings.

that's lucy? it looks like potsie webber after drinkin' dr. jekyl's potion.

a good actor. gets shot by a james dean lookalike in the western firecreek.

yeah, I woulda gone with Fred Thompson.

religiously that is quite true but ABC made an annual tradition by showing it sunday nites starting back in the seventies. at the beginning of Close Encounters of the Third Kind it is obviously a sunday nite when the power goes out because the ten commandments is seen on the Neary's family room TV.

truly wonderful news! when I scrolled ahead on my TV schedule to see The Ten Commandments was nowhere to be seen tonite my heart sank with fear. was ABC prepared to finally end a long standing decades- long tradition? so I scrolled ahead to sunday nite and there it is! tomorrow nite at 7:00... The Ten Commandments is back on sunday nite where it belongs! sunday was always america's family nite around the TV. that's how The Ten Commandments should be watched. by families around the living room TV on sunday nite. I never liked The Ten Commandments on saturday nites. it just didn't feel right give 'em hell, chuck!

I was wondering. I and I be sure many others used to watch the wizard of oz as kids when CBS would favor us with their annual showings, but CBS did not go color until 1965. therefore, how many black & white airings was there of the wizard of oz on CBS before 1965? hope that be a toughie.

yes, is this tcm's recent theater-released imax print or do millions of cable viewers in america get treated to an inferior print? give us the recent theater print, I say! why would we get an inferior print of The wizard of oz?

wow, that be fast. a 75 year old film from theaters to TV in so short a time? thank you, tcm.

my favorite tcm pet movie comedy lust for life at twelve forty five tonite. kirk is a real hoot as vincent van gogh getting on paul gauguin's nerves.

hey jamesjazzguitar, this be my first bellyachin' in main discussion on my new computer.

sounds like The Ox-Bow Incident.

but they won't show Hot Spell?????????????

I suggest that tcm programmers at least consider a showing of The Prisoner of Second Avenue starring Jack Lemmon and Anne Bancroft with fine comedic support from Saks not only as director but as Mel's bread-winning brother, Harry.

I sure would like that, yes sir, I sure would like that! and why not, tim holt is in it.

well, it's tcm's fault. all they seem to care about are Gone With The Wind, Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, 2001: a space odyssey and pleasure cruises. slackers!
