TCM is awesome.

Also, there's a series on PBS called "The Trouble with Maggie Cole" starring Dawn French,of "French and Saunders", about a lady who inadvertently spreads some vicious gossip in a small town in England, and her attempt to make things right. Kind of a comedy/drama. Episode 3 is tonight and you can see 1 and 2 online on the PBS website if you've missed them.

Lemmon and Bancroft, what could be bad?

Haven't gotten into Maggie Cole; will try again.
