A peek at TCM’s “super secret schedule” for August 2016 reveals the channel’s day-by-day Summer Under the Stars selections for 2016 (also highlighted on TCM’s Message Boards). Still my favorite of Turner Classic Movie’s annual traditions, Summer Under the Stars highlights one particular film star per day, 24 hours a day, throughout each of the 31 days in August. Without further ado, here’s who TCM is highlighting during Summer Under the Stars 2016 (US schedule):

August 1 – Edward G. Robinson
August 2 – Lucille Ball
August 3 – Bing Crosby
August 4 – Fay Wray
August 5 – Karl Malden
August 6 – Montgomery Clift
August 7 – Jean Harlow
August 8 – Esther Williams
August 9 – Tim Holt
August 10 – Hedy Lamarr
August 11 – Spencer Tracy
August 12 – Janet Gaynor
August 13 – Ralph Richardson
August 14 – Cyd Charisse
August 15 – Roddy McDowall
August 16 – Anne Baxter
August 17 – James Edwards
August 18 – Angie Dickinson
August 19 – Ruby Keeler
August 20 – Humphrey Bogart
August 21 – Bette Davis
August 22 – Robert Montgomery
August 23 – Brigitte Bardot
August 24 – Constance Cummings
August 25 – Van Johnson
August 26 – Boris Karloff
August 27 – James Garner
August 28 – Jean Arthur
August 29 – Charles Boyer
August 30 – Jean Simmons
August 31 – Dean Martin

Other Notes

TCM has announced the hiring of Tiffany Vazquez as host of their Saturday daytime programming beginning this June. Will McKinley has more details on the hire at his site HERE.

The annual Summer Reading Classic Film Book Challenge has been announced at Out of the Past, and Raquel was kind enough to allow me to donate a brand new paperback copy of Helen Twelvetrees, Perfect Ingenue to the contest. A copy of my Twelvetrees book is part of the grand prize haul, but if you already own a copy you’re more than welcome to use it as one of your six classic film book entries—all of the details on this year’s challenge are at Out of the Past HERE.

      Hello Susan, “Something About You” by Lucius is what your looking for. Its not the same without Jean Harlows laugh followed up by James Garner. Happy I could help. TCM forever
