we've lost Bob Conrad. he could be a very formidable actor at times.
tcm should air Will: G. Gordon Liddy but they'll shove palm springs weekend down our throats instead.

I doan even know what a trope is?

I hope that tcm will not beat us over the head with The Bad and the Beautiful too much. they might consider Draw! even though it was cable TV fare.
good comedic performances by kirk and James Coburn and Alexandra Bastedo is hot.

With the passing of Kirk Douglas at 103 years, classic Hollywood's last great star who is still alive is Olivia de Havilland, who, God willing, will be 104 years on July 1, 2020.

THE HOURS didn't work for me either.
TCM's idea of including Paramount films in its Oscar scheduling is to show HOLD BACK THE DAWN, THE LOST WEEKEND, sometimes THE HEIRESS, sometimes STALAG 17 and then one or two more recent offerings like those you've mentioned.
They never show anything directed by Cecil B. DeMille, and he had a big Oscar winning picture at Paramount-- THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH (1952).
Paramount controls the Republic film library (there were almost 1000 feature films produced by Republic Pictures from 1935 to 1959, not counting serials). So it would certainly behoove TCM to partner up with Paramount more.
Hot Spell is a paramount film.

he's the reason I loathed 1970s network television.

I will be forever grateful to Fred Silverman for bringing back Raymond Burr and Barbara Hale for a tremendous coda of 26 made for TV Mysteries--
starting with "Perry Mason Returns" in 1985 on NBC --
where both of them reprised their original roles from the classic "Perry Mason" TV series for 18 years.
screw Silverman. did he ever get Raymond Burr to shave off his beard so we could see the old perry mason again?

^ JAWS is a classic soundtrack; I never listen to it and never owned it!
best score of 1975 is all. some of the tracks are exhilarating. it is the only john Williams score that I don't think jerry goldsmith coulda matched or surpassed.
the close is serenely beautiful
