May 2021

what we know of the TCM collection will be merged into the TimeWarner collection resulting in a blend of newer "classics" in an attempt to lure younger audiences to seek out the cable channel.

More films from the 80s, 90, and 00s will show up in programming displacing many from the silent era and 30s and 40s (with exceptions made for classics like "Casablanca, Gone with the Wind, etc).

And I wouldn't be surprised to see commercials pop up now and again.

---------------------------

What I'm hoping for, someday:

The entire TCM Classic collection will be available On Demand for a monthly fee. How much would you pay per month for such an option? $10.00? $15.00?

I do not think anything will happen with their programming. They have a commercial free niche JohnSJ May 2021 #5
