I know I'm pretty damn late to the party and I'm sure no one at TCM is reading this, but I still just wanted to say 'Thank You'. Last year was dismal for me (and most), but your movie line-up for October of last year was stellar. I finally saw a lot of old classics I'd never gotten around to viewing, and the vibe of the channel overall that month really helped me get into the Halloween spirit. Also, more Peter Cushing is never a bad thing :)
This has already run long, so long story short: TCM was a true help fighting my 2020 depression, and all-but-carried the Halloween season for me, and for that I say Thank You So Much, to everyone at TCM. P.S. Cheers Eddie. You're my favorite host.

October is my favorite month of TCM programming.

Nothing get's better in TCM'S October. I love This mouth the most in every year.

[rosea]

We need a night of the week where we can watch horror movies; both popular and obscure., all year round.

"An American Werewolf in London" is a great horror-comedy movie with great effects. Maybe it's up

[manjuamarnathdas]
