but since TCM got a lousy programmer who seems to be endlessly reliving his youth, I'm thinking of getting it disconnected. Amazon Prime will substitute nicely, as would Netflix.

Most of the time, I've found myself over at You Tube watching things like Tales from the Green Valley.

ETA: and no, Ms. Jenner has not made an appearance on any of the channels I watch. I think she resides mostly on all the wretchedly bad 24 hour "news" channels, something I avoid like the plague they are.
