ANIMAL CRACKERS (1930) just entered the public domain and it's already on Tubi (and elsewhere).

I remember its 1979 TV premiere on CBS, after decades of unavailability due to rights issues.

I hope a new generation discovers the Marx Bros. now, just like I did then. #FilmSky #PublicDomain

The whole Egghead/Elmer Fudd situation still fascinates me.

They are two different characters, though they are often confused with one another.

Egghead has wider eyes and a more oval head.

Even more confusing? Egghead wore proto-Elmer's outfit in Daffy Duck's Quackbusters and had smaller eyes.

The first UHF television station began operations #OTD in 1949.

"Ultra High Frequency" dramatically expanded the broadcast TV landscape, opening up space for independent, educational, and foreign language channels.

In the era before cable proliferated, UHF was where the weird stuff was. #ClassicTV
