    Please don't ask questions, just use google.

    Never let good music get in the way of making a profit.

    I'm only here to reglaze my bathtub.

    They keep downgrading the definition of "classic movie", don't they?

    Wow. I'm actually quite surprised.

    They've been playing some great silents lately. Tonight it's Metropolis.

    They've also shown Head (the Monkees movie) a couple times, as well as well as one of the Peter Cushing Doctor Who movies, and quite a lot of really cool stuff. Typically, Saturday or Sunday morning starting about 2:00 am, they'll show some really off the wall stuff. A couple weeks ago, they showed a Ray Dennis Steckler film.

    Yep, I'm a big fan of TCM.

    Not too surprising really. TCM owns the MGM catalog and 200 Motels was done by MGM iirc. It will be censored beyond reason you all know that right? I love the album,but the movie is a major effort to sit through.

    I would not necessarily assume that it will be censored. I don't think they censor anything. I've seen several movies with the f--- word intact on TCM.

    Love the music sound tracks from these movies but they sound more like recent compositions. Saw one just last week but I can't remember the name. The Piano was most proggy.
    The older I get, the better I was.

    "IF SHE COMES INTO THIS PLACE, WILL SHE SIT ON MY FACE, WHERE'S MY WAITRESS?" Plus, will they show Pamela's tits?

    In general, I don't believe TCM edits any of their programming for content anymore. I know they don't edit movies in the TCM Underground slot (of which this will be).

    FYI, if you're into cult,exploito type flicks, it's worth checking TCM Underground's schedule. They're not always winners but they've shown some good stuff over the years that I've never seen anywhere else like Blood On Satan's Claw and Venus In Furs. Their normal time slot is Fri. nights 2-6, but it seems to air in phases. May be on one week and then off for a few. They also have a tendency to repeat movies in the series so if you miss something it's a pretty good chance they'll replay it. I know they've showed 200 Motels coupled with The Monkees' Head before.

    I was going to set up my DVR to record 200 Motels only to discover the schedule's been changed and now "Door to Door Maniac" from 1961 with Johnny Cash and Donald Woods is scheduled. Sorry about that.
