Not only that, but TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes w/Dick Clark and Ed McMahon! That was a quite entertaining "reality" show, if I do say so myself!

TCM, TNT, and TBS are all Turner networks. Did they split ownership at one point? TCM is one of the few channels left that have stuck to its original purpose.

Syfy still airs The Twilight Zone, but mostly as morning filler. They do have annual marathons all day on July 4 and New Year's Eve/Day.

Agreed. I give a LOT of credit to TCM for staying true to its original format. In the face of cable channels that are giving in to greed and radically changing their programming, there we have TCM which has been showing old films uncut and commercial free since 1994. I respect TCM more than any other cable channel.
