I think Bette Davis was really overrated. She wasn't a good actress and was a bit homely. As for comedians, I think Joe E. Brown was just annoying with that odd laugh of his.
She did have those "Betty Davis Eyes."

I do live in CA. Dargo, but now worry so much more about wildfires, then floods.
I suppose you've not been to San Berdoo.
I've not been to Arizona.

Are you sure that isn't a picture of John-Boy Walton?

This stuff doesn't get into the guides:
Don't be confused. That is not Klaatu. That is The Keeper, a colorized image.

Like Jeanne Crain, I am using the name of a real person from the past. I try to keep that in mind when posting.
I feel TopBilled made a decent and kindly put statement.
Between cable/satellite and streaming, it is now possible to customize what you want to see on TV.
No one should be unhappy with their TV choices.

None of the shorts are listed in the Xfinity X1 guide. You have to look at the guide for the day here on the TCM site. It is also the most accurate when there are changes.

Michael,
You need to check the Month Highlights page. The Temple birthday tribute and the Noir Alley stuff is mentioned there, among other things:
Yes, that is more than one place I noticed Shirley's BD. No mention except for the regular Noir Alley, not the block of daytime Noir movies. Oh well.

Where are the examples from straight women and gay men?
Or is this thread exclusively devoted to cheesecake?
I dig chicks too, but these guys seemed a bit too good looking to be cops.

What do you mean? How do you expect them to mention it?
It was only mentioned here, in the Noir Alley thread. I suppose TCM does not spotlight their daytime events. Since themes seem to be such a big deal, why do something special and not say so?
There is mention of the Shirley Temple birthday event on 4/23.

Daytime Noir with no mention from TCM.

Lara's Theme from Dr. Zhivago

Good Luck Sub-Level 5. It is difficult to communicate with the cable providers. Maybe you can request a technician come to your home. Make sure there is no charge.

Not only that, but I DON'T pay a fee of any kind to get TCM on my cable service. It's always been part of the "basic" package. But too, I've no interest in this "backlot" thing.

Jealous! I pay for a Preferred package.

A very good post fxreyman. So your Uber passengers are not put off by the patch? I couldn't resist. It is hilarious, in a sad way, when people don't know older movies.
Your Robin Hood comment is classic. I can hear it now. "Why would I watch a movie with dead people in it?"
I am not well educated in movies, but seem to know what I like. Same goes for music. Just ask JamesJazzGuitar what real music is. I'm a country music fan, a classic country music fan. Just like movies on TCM, the newer music gets, the more selective I am. Many of the best artists in music and film are no longer with us.
Some young people have no clue how to relate with older films. I am 60+ and have knowledge, maybe not personal, but the words from parents and grandparents, who explained their past.
I just searched Golden Age of Hollywood.

I did not expect something so involved. Wow!

The Long, Long Trailer is so much fun because it isn't made up.
"That's not the population, but the elevation."
I am the same way with Victor/Victoria.
It is fun to love a film so much.

I assumed Georgette's voice was made up. Then I saw her do an interview. I loved her voice. She was a bit smarter than her hubby Ted. They were both a French fry short of a happy meal, but Georgette was so much fun.
It is sad when an outside force prevents quality of life.
At near 62, it gets spooky.
Overrated talents ?

Yes, Yes I should!
