TCM's Robert Osborne doesn't look good

I know he was ill. He looks now like they're propping in up. Hope he is okay!

• Oy sorry to hear that

• I must tune in for a look.

• He introduced a couple of the Hammer Films I watched the other day and his voice just didn't sound right.

• I'm a little curious about how often he has to go in to the office...so to speak. I assume all of his segments are pre-taped in bunches. Does he tape a months worth of programming in a single work day? Can anyone here shed some light on what kind of schedule the TCM hosts have?

• They sometimes are topical....so I'd guess once a week.

• He's 80. I think he looks and seems fine.

• Anyone ever been on one of those TCM boat cruises?

• I was thinking of going to the TCM Hollywood festival they hold in April. I'd hoped to see him there. He seems like a lovely man. I don't hate the pedigreed Manciewicz guy, but I wish there was another "older" host like Osbourne on staff.

• Final Jeopardy on Friday's show... Category: Cable TV Firsts Answer: When Turner Classic Movies began broadcasting on April 14th, 1994, the first movie shown was this one. Question: ?

• R4- Unless it has recently changed, the intros are taped in Atlanta. He lives in New York City and flies down there one week of the month. That's when he tapes his intros.

• Gone With the Wind R9?

• But please tell me he flies to Atlanta on one of Ted Turner's private jets?

• I will be sliding my feet into a Jello mold on tonight's show followed by an encore presentation of Mr. Skeffington.

• You are correct r11. And of course Alex made it seem like the obvious answer afterwards by telling everyone how the TCM headquarters are in Atlanta and which classic film is like a love poem to Atlanta. Interestingly all three contestants guessed different movies though. One was correct with GWTW, one guessed Casablanca, and the third guessed It's A Wonderful Life.

  R9

• Did anyone see the intro he did last week with Drew Barrymore? He sat in the chair the entire time, and he had his right arm going across his body and resting on the left armrest of the chair. It was a very unnatural and awkward looking pose, and he held it all through the opening, and then during the short segment after the movie. He finally moved it at the end, but it was very odd, and made me wonder if he had full function in that arm, or maybe he was trying to keep it from trembling. I love the guy, and I wish they would tell us what the hell has been going on with him for the last 18 months.

• [quote]I wish there was another "older" host like Osbourne on staff. Nick Clooney (father of George, brother of Rosemary) used to do the Osborne role on AMC & I thought he was quite good.

• I wish Debbie Reynolds would be a part-time host.

• If Debbie hosts, they'll have to lock up the booze. She likes the sauce!

• I should have known Debbie would know where to find the booze AND the boys.......and girls.

• He's 80???? I never would have guessed. For 80, he looks great.

• Love him and will be so sad when he's gone. There is no one that can replace him as a host other than a film star of the 60s that is still healthy and may have actually had some experience in the waning days of the studio system and may actually have some stories to tell about the last of the Golden Era stars. Joanne Woodward? Jane Fonda? Robert Redford?

• I worry bout him:(

• I wonder if Drew Barrymore will one day be a TCM host? She has a pedigree, and seems to love classic films. As she ages out of Hollywood, this might become a viable career option for her; maybe when she's in her fifties and sixties, if the channel still exists.

• I was famous in the 70s and would welcome the job!

• He looked a bit back to normal this past Halloween. Hope he's doing good, my sister was shocked he was still hosting.

• Did/does RO have a life partner?
