Upcoming Mysteries on Turner Classic Movies for August 2021

July 23, 2021

The Turner Classic Movies channel will be presenting the four Miss Marple movies starring Margaret Rutheford during August 2021. These movies very loosely follow Agatha Christie’s books. These movies will start airing on August’s first Thursday night and will end early that Friday morning.

On Thursday, August 26, Turner Classic Movies will be showing Rock Hudson, Doris Day, and Tony Randall comedies. The three movies are not mystery movies, however, if you haven’t seen them yet, you may enjoy them (almost!) as much as I do. (I have them listed on this month’s mystery movie list so you can be sure to set up your DVRs.) Sometimes we all just need movies that are light and amusing…

Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel Cozy Mystery Movies – July 2021

July 2, 2021

Happy (month of the) Fourth of July! As you look at the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel’s schedule for this month, you’ll be able to see that they are continuing with their Christmas in June celebration – carrying it into a Christmas in July movies theme during July’s first week. (I thought that the channel might focus on patriotic-themed movies all day on the Fourth, but… no cigar!)

I’m sorry to say that  I don’t see any mystery movie PREMIERES coming up during July.  It does, however, look like there will be at least one new Aurora Teagarden mystery movie in August. That’s something to look forward to!

Upcoming Mysteries on Turner Classic Movies for July 2021

June 22, 2021

The Turner Classic Movie channel will be celebrating the Fourth of July by showing some movies that feature patriotic-themed issues. If you’re a fan of Jimmy Cagney, be sure to watch Yankee Doodle Dandy. Known as an actor who embodied gangsters and slick characters, this movie shows what a great dancer he was.

For you Elvis Presley fans, the Turner Classic Movie channel will be showing his movies on Thursday (July 8) and Friday (July 9). These are not mystery movies, but I’m guessing there may be a few Elvis fans who will want to add these movies to their queus of must-watch movies.

Wednesday (July 28) celebrates immigrants, and on a very different note, Friday (July 30) movies feature spies.
