Addicted to Turner Classic Movies channel
I'm hooked. I can't stop setting my dvr box for all different sorts of classic movies. It doesn't matter what time of the day or night it's running. In fact I'm not even bothering to rent or pay-per-view anything because of the untapped wealth of entertainment TCM has to offer. It doesn't matter if it's a musical, or a horror, or even a mystery or western....I dvr it all. However I have to say, I think my 'new' favorite actor is Randolph Scott. I seem to enjoy him in everything I've seen him in. In fact, I wish there were more men in the (real) world like the characters he often played.
