Sepiatone Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 TCM plays too many old movies. TCM plays too many NEW movies. TCM doesn't show enough silent movies. TCM shows TOO MANY silent movies. TCM shows too many foreign movies. TCM DOESN'T show ENOUGH foreign movies. TCM doesn't repeat enough good movies. TCM repeats TOO MANY good movies. TCM shows too many "pre codes" and not enough "noir". TCM shows too many "noir" movies, but not enough screwball comedies. TCM doesn't show enough movies with MY favorite actor/actress. TCM shows movies with my favorite actor/actress, but NOT the ones I like BEST. TCM has Robert Osborne talk too much about crap I don't care about. TCM has Robert Osborne not talk ENOUGH about that crap. In short, TCM doesn't spend enough time catering to ME, and ME ALONE! Did I miss anything?

Dargo2 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 This thread reminds me of the message in a certain ex-teen idols comeback hit which he wrote after getting booed during a Madison Square Garden appearance. Sing it, Ricky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
