Damn I hate those things! I don't need to be constantly reminded about what other show/movie is coming up. <BR/><BR/>Adelle: I see that TCM is offered in Canada. If you have cable/satellite service but not TCM, you can visit the link below and then click on "TCM Canada" from the sidebar menu for more info.<BR/><BR/>http://www.tcm.com/support/<BR/><BR/>Tonya: I love to hear about young people like your daughter who are into the old movies. I was the same way when I was a kid.<BR/><BR/>SJ: Because TCM often shows good stuff while I'm at work, I'll sometimes record things (esp. if it's a movie that they don't air much). If it's a movie that does come on quite a bit, I know I'll eventually catch it at some point in time.<BR/><BR/>JanetFaye: I'm always glad to turn someone on to TCM... thanks for visiting.<BR/><BR/>Hootin Anni: Thanks... I'll stop by later today.<BR/><BR/>Chameleone: One of my favorite "What A Character" profiles is the one they did on Eve Arden. If she's in a movie, that's reason enough to give it a shot. <BR/><BR/>Peanut Butter: They occas. will show all or most of the "Thin Man" movies all in a row. I've only caught a couple of them so I'll have my DVD Recorder ready for the next time they air them.<BR/><BR/>Jay: I'd love to do what Robert and Ben do for a living. Speaking of Robert Osborne, I'm glad that TCM hasn't seen fit to fire him for demographic reasons. Although the day will eventually come, I can't imagine TCM without him.<BR/><BR/>Nicholas: Despite them showing LOTR: Return of the King, I am confident that you will really enjoy what TCM has to offer. Because you're from the UK, you may appreciate that they often show British movies from the "angry young man" genre, those produced by Ealing Studios and many others. <BR/><BR/>The Bumbles: Speaking of scary movies, I caught "Homicidal" on TCM last year. That was a good little flick.Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065814455731328574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498798416841063155.post-27298956934413329672009-04-11T00:18:00.000-04:002009-04-11T00:18:00.000-04:00This channel is so awesome - I know I can always f...This channel is so awesome - I know I can always find a quality movie when I need one.

Your TT prompts me to give it a shot.
