Disney Films on TCM

[UmbrellaFish]

Disney movies and films based off the same source material as other Disney movies on TCM in October. Disney movies in bold.

Father of the Bride (1950), February 5th 6:15 PM EST
Pretty Woman (1990), February 12th 12:30 AM EST Technically Touchstone but...
Camelot (1967), February 13th 10:30 AM EST
The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938), February 26th 11:45 AM EST

BAD NEWS: Technically, there are no true Disney-produced movies this month.

GOOD NEWS: It's Oscar month and TCM has a wonderful selection of films to watch!

Obviously, I've slacked off on this a little bit, but I wanted to post this information:

Robert Osborne Takes a Short Break

Beginning today, Robert Osborne plans to take a short break from his TCM hosting duties for minor surgery, followed by a vacation. Osborne, who recently signed a multi-year agreement with TCM, plans to return to the network in three months and will also attend the first TCM Classic Cruise in December. He will continue to appear on TCM as part of several features, including the Guest Programmer series, The Essentials and Race & Hollywood: Arab Images on Film. Many of Osborne's hosting duties will be handled on a temporary basis by a number of special guests and friends of the network, including Robert Wagner (week of July 11), Jane Powell (week of July 18) and Tippi Hedren (week of July 25). Other guest hosts will be announced in the coming weeks.

Wishing Robert Osborne the best! Hopefully he can recover quick enough to enjoy some of that three month vacation.

I'm pissed I missed Jane Powell! When I watched Louisiana Purchase on 7/10 Robert Osborne was the host!

On a related note, Dish Network is currently offering its subscribers (of all tiers, I believe) Star/Encore for free until January.

Through Starz, I DVR'd "Boys: The Sherman Brothers Story" and "Walt & El Grupo."

I was really excited!

Just a heads up but in the evening of September 2, on TCM, Fun and Fancy Free, The Love Bug, The Happiest Millionaire, and The Misadventures of Merlin Jones will be screened.

Full schedule here.

Do you think Disney will continue airing films on TCM once Disney+ starts up?

[JeanGreyForever]

I'm not sure. Leonard Maltin specifically mentioned that this would be the last Disney Treasures night for 2019 on TCM, so likely they still have plans in 2020 and beyond, otherwise he might have mentioned that this would be the last time ever.

Well, for the moment anyway, I'm going to assume that there will be no more airings of Disney stuff on TCM again. Mind you, I could be mistaken, but that's how I feel right now. It's going to be disappointing there will be no Disney Vault Night in December, though. To be fair, however, they have gone through a large chunk of the older Disney material already on TCM through these events.
