All those shows you listed are better than 99% of the drivel that is spewn from the entertainment industry now. Those Sinbad movies are "da bomb". Ray Harryhausen is the master!

TCM has far surpassed AMC as the quintessential "classic" cable/satellite channel. AMC is now nothing more than TNT with old shows.

Hi Octagon and Dvo! Yeah, I have been a long time AMC fan, but more and more lately I have been tuning into TCM. There were some /incredible/ scripts for those old B/W shows.

Not long ago, my spouse and I watched our very first silent movie on TCM - the original (and best so I've heard) Phantom of the Opera, starring the "man of a thousand faces", Lon Chaney Sr. I was really amazed, they really learned to do alot without sound. I don't think I could make a regular viewing habit out of the silent ones, but I sure thought it was neat that we had the priviledge of seeing something so well preserved, a real piece of Americana.

Cheers!

Oh Muffit you are Married! My heart is broken, so back to Lorena.

Oh yeah quality Muffit, The Scifi Cannel and quality are two ships that pasted in the night years ago, in another Ocean. The SS Scifi was sold to Vivendi Universal they sent to be scrapped.

AMC has ADS, also

TCM was part of TBS, which owned TNT, so don't give 'em as in AOL/TimeWarner any ideas!
