Hi all,
In the SF Bay Area, I remember The Premiere Movie on Channel 2. It showed
the same movie on weekend nights and maybe Friday and Monday too. I remember
watching the same movie on multiple nights. I especially remember watching
Billy Budd several times.
We were lucky. In the early 60'
Leo Gorcey's younger brother David was also a part of the "gang." He played
"Peewee" and "Chuck."

called "The Million Dollar Movie" and the same movie played every night at 8:00
p.m., twice on Saturday and twice on Sunday. Every week brought a new movie. I

I forgot to mention one of my favorite very bad Million Dollar movies
which is CAGED. That one ran on alternate weeks with Yankee Doodle
Dandy. Everyone loved the scene in which Hope Emerson as the mean and
nasty Matron gets it. FRANC

In the San Francisco Bay Area in the 50s & 60s, they showed THE SNOW
CREATURE and KILLERS FROM SPACE incessantly. I watched them both far too
many times to be considered normal psychologically as a child.

Hi Bruce:
We are pretty close in age. I am 53. I think my Dad bought our first color
television in 1965. We were the first on our block to have a RCA color TV. It
was really exciting. I think many were buying them to see Bonanza in color.
Those were the good old days. My favorite show as a

The reason they showed these all the time was because they would buy the
rights to them for a month or 6 months or a year, and they could show them

We must be close to the same age (I just turned 56) as I remember this being

My father was the last person in the world to get a color TV (he wanted to
be sure the process was "perfected" first) and I saw this movie over and

When I was kid in the 1960's they used to show a black and white print ALL
the time of "The Boy With Green Hair" with Dean Stockwell. I like this movie
very much but could not fully appreciate the movie until I saw the color

K, SUDDENLY LAST SUMMER is worth watching if only for Liz's scream at
the end.
As for Losey's THE SERVANT. I watched it initially in film school
then again recently and is unquestioningly brilliant to this day.
Never saw PICASSO SUMMER but it sounds hilarious if not boring as hell.
What's
I got to thinking that when I was a kid, there were a few movies that
were on television ALL THE TIME. What was odd about this is that
these just weren't the kind of movies one would expect to see
constantly for years (during the 60s and 70s) in a market like
Phoenix, AZ.
