Re: POLL: Do you want a Like button? Poll has ended!

Below is my response to Cuthbert's post responding to Masha's. Not sure why it posted as part of his response. Sad. While I believe Masha may have been a little harsher than some of us would have been, she did just express her beliefs on the subject. As another "refugee" from the TCM boar...

Re: POLL: Do you want a Like button? Poll ends tomorrow!

The LAFFITE NEWS CHANNEL is now calling the race for LIKE. But is it enough to actually vault into existence this button or will if fall short. We go now to one of our news contributors to the Laffite News Channel for an analysis. Go ahead. :smiley_snoopy: Beats me. Thank you for that and now some ...

Re: 2023 TCM Film Festival

Yes. We decided to go all out. We wanted to get the full experience. I will also admit that the priority seating was a big incentive too. LOL. I can't wait to find out what other films will be there aside from the announced ones, and who the special guests will be. I've never not been able to get i...

Re: February 2023 Schedule Posted, Rita Moreno is SOTM

I wonder if the new version of One Day at a Time is produced under the same parent company that owns TCM. Nope. The remake was produced by Act III Productions (a Norman Lear company), GloNation Studios (Gloria Calderon Kellett), Snowpants Productions (Mike Royce) and Sony Television. Distribution w...

Re: 2023 TCM Film Festival

Assuming that the passholders and ticket buyers (you can buy individual screening tickets, if space is available after passholders are seated) foot the bill for a good portion of the event, then that would be a reason for the expense. TCM has to pay for the hosts & celebrities/guests, their lodg...

Re: I Just Watched...

I hope you get to see the documentary Max Steiner , directed by Diana Friedenberg, recently shown on TCM. It is outstanding, following Steiner's career from Vienna to New York to Hollywood. There are clips from movies, a TV interview with Steiner, comments by Michael Feinstein and others, shots of ...

Re: POLL: Do you want a Like button?

But, is there a possibility that a poster who originally voted for the like button can change his/her mind and vote against the like button? Maybe we should look into that.

Re: Least favorite TV Series

Not a fan of so-called reality series. They are manipulative (for both the viewers and the participants). The only one that I ever watched was The Amazing Race, but I haven't watched it in years. Not even sure if it's still on.

Re: Familiar faces, new forum

I have a little trouble navigating here. For example, if I post something that's in one of the "Recent Topics" section, I find that I can't locate the thread easily later, because I don't remember (or didn't notice) what topic it was in. This is a good, but very "busy" board. I ...
