long live TCM

I am so addicted to TCM these days. Last night, they showed all musicals. I saw Singing in the Rain for the first time...LOVED IT. I'd heard all the songs, of course, and had seen some pieces of it, but never this much. It was fantastic. Then they showed a Fred Astaire one from the 50s that I greatly enjoyed (despite the one performance where they played infant triplets, sang about how they did everything the same, but "we hate each other, we hate our folks. We hate the jokes about what an art it is to tell us apart. I wish I had a gun, a wittle gun, to shoot the other two so I could be one." ACK! LOL I was horrified), then came Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which was still on when I fell asleep. My favorite musical, Kiss Me Kate, was on at 1, but I couldn't stay up that late. <.sigh>

Now I'm watching The Philadelphia Story. I adore this movie, every bit of it. Don't always agree with everything, but I enjoy it immensely. I wonder what's on next. If it's nothing I want to watch, maybe I'll pop in my Jimmy Stewart/Carole Lombard movie. <.g> I could totally go for that today.
