I keep thinking summer is over, even though our weather is still hot, hotter, hottest! I guess the reason that I think it is Fall is because our neighborhood children have been in school for the last two weeks. That&#8217;s right, they started the school year on August 11! (I actually have already put up my autumnal wreath!)<\/p>\n<p>This month, the Turner Classic Movies channel is going to be showing all four of the Agatha Christie Miss Jane Marple movies that Dame Margaret Rutherford starred in: Murder She Said (1961), Murder at the Gallop (1963), Murder Ahoy (1964), and Murder Most Foul (1964). The first three listed will be aired on Monday, September 15 and the 4th will be shown on Sunday, September 21. I must admit that it took some time for me to get used to a lot of the changes these four movies made to Christie&#8217;s novels&#8230; but I now look forward to watching these movies spin on Miss Marple. (You&#8217;ll see what I mean if you watch the movies&#8230;) Also, in case you are interested, Tony Randall portrays Christie&#8217;s Poirot in The Alphabet Murders (1965) which will air on September 15, after the 3 Miss Marple movies, in which Margaret Rutherford makes a cameo appearance as Miss Marple. I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing her in that movie &#8211; which I don&#8217;t remember ever seeing before.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the mystery and crime movies the Turner Classic Movies channel will be showing during September 2025:<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Adam's Rib [DVD]\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00004TJOD\/?tag=httpwwwmarkes-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-amazonimages=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft\" title=\"Adam's Rib [DVD]\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51bHnVbcIUL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Adam's Rib [DVD]\" width=\"182\" height=\"249\" \/><\/a> ***** ***** ***** *****<\/p>\n<h4>TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES CHANNEL MYSTERY MOVIES \u2013 September 2025<\/h4>\n<p>***** ***** ***** *****<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monday &#8211; September 1, 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>12:00 PM Adam&#8217;s Rib (1949)<\/strong><br \/>\nA happily-married, middle-aged husband and wife strain their marriage while serving as trial attorneys on opposite sides of the same headline-making attempted murder-marital case.
