BING ON TCM - JUNE/JULY 2011

After the Bing Crosby marathon earlier this week, I was hoping TCM would be showing a lot more Bing in the summer. Not much going on in June or July, but a little Bing is better than no Bing at all.

Reportedly, TCM will be showing more Universal/Paramount movies this year, so I am hopeful different Bing items will be shown, but here is what we have so far to start out the summer:

JUNE 3 - HIGH SOCIETY (1956)
JUNE 7 - ROBIN AND THE SEVEN HOODS (1964)
JUNE 26 - A CONNECTICUT YANKEE IN KING ARTHUR'S COURT (1949)
JULY 14 - ROAD TO MOROCCO (1942)

It's going to be a day early, but TCM is honoring Bing on his 108th birthday with a marathon of his movies, and well as a short Bing did in 1957. It is going to be a terrfic day of Bing tomorrow...
