On a related note, how many have been watching the interviews on Turner Classic Movies? I'm a bit disappointed, but not surprised, that most of them are cut for time. I'd say for the 12 minute segment, but many of them don't fit that block - like much of Turner's schedule.
While the segments will be used in between programs (Mel Brooks is set to run again tomorrow night), the last block of them will run on Monday.
