... and documentaries about making movies. Occasional biographies about old timey movies and directors. Robert Osborne was associated with it until his death in 2017.

My big beef with them is they refuse to honor Labor Day. Today is brimming over with patriotic entertainment. Christmas week is very festive. Halloween movies for at least a week. Memorial Day with war movies adnauseum. But not one worker movie to celebrate Labor Day.

I forgive them. I just love that channel.
