Happy 65th birthday to Michael J. Fox: my hero when I was a kid, and still a hero today. Watch him in "Family Ties" any time on Pluto TV: pluto.tv/us/live-tv/5...

Harpo Marx spoke at his final public performance in 1964.

CBS tried to steal some thunder from NBC's popular SUNDAY MYSTERY MOVIE by airing MANNIX and BARNABY JONES against it 1973-74.
CBS even promoted it as the "The Mystery Double Feature"!
And it worked. BARNABY JONES (which debuted Jan '73) became a hit and aired for 8 seasons. #TVSky
Harpo Marx -- the "silent" Marx brother -- can finally be heard speaking in a live album of recently recovered material, which was recorded just six months before he died in 1964.

Netflix has 15 pre-1980 films this month and most are repeats and holdovers, but there's one they haven't had in a while.
Perhaps you've heard of it. #FilmSky
