And the 1933 /King Kong/, the B&W /Secret Garden/ (which my 8yo
daughter likes), and the live action Disney movies from the late 50s
thru mid 70s like /The Shaggy Dog/, /Flubber/, /The World's
Strongest Man/, /Escape From Witch Mountain/ etc.

Turner Classic Movies is *the* channel in our house.  It and a PVR
that burns DVDs are unbeatable.
