My Favorite Spy
Day: Wednesday January 04 2006
Time: 6:00 am Eastern
Channel: TCM - Turner Classic Movies
Title: My Favorite Spy (1942)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Ellen Drew, Jane Wyman

Description: Not the Bob Hope film. Band leader Kay Kyser plays himself as a nebbish recruited by Uncle Sam to infiltrate a ring of spies; he is to do this by acting unpleasant and un-American (all played for laughs, mind you, at the height of WWII), to attract the spies' attempts to recruit him. His wife, Ellen Drew (not in on the secret), leaves in disgust.

The night she picks to return, the feds have G-Gal Jane Wyman posing as Kay's wife while he meets the spies. Jane takes Ellen to another room to explain things; from behind, she pulls down her coat, pinning her arms, and hand-gags her.

Later, Kay goes to check on her; he hears much mmpphh-ing coming from a closet, and opens the door: there she is, sitting on a chair, hands bound behind it, ankles tied to the legs with scarves, gagged with dark cloth over her mouth, squirming, grunting, and glaring daggers. He does his best to explain, and leaves her.

Later, Jane goes to check on her -- Ellen has freed herself, and grabs Jane, who now finds herself bound in the chair, gagged with a light-colored scarf over her mouth. Ellen smirks and pushes Jane's preposterously large hat down over her eyes as she leaves.

Later, Kay is trying to lead Ellen from the bad guys' hideout; still not trusting him, she screams for all she's worth. Next thing you know, her head, arms, and upper body are wrapped in black cloth, tied with white rope. Kay spends the last part of the film carrying her over his shoulder this way (giving her a sharp spanking at one point, which only quiets her for a second). Her struggles and muffled screams are about as energetic as any I've ever seen.
Record number: 336

You'd be safe rolling tape at the 45' mark. The running time for an AMC airing is listed (repeat: "listed") at 93'.

Adding some taping time beyond the listed end's not a bad idea when dealing with AMC or premium channels, whose schedules are not as rigid as broadcast and cable networks and stations.

Make Your Own Bed
Day: Wednesday January 04 2006
Time: 7:30 am Eastern
Channel: TCM Turner Classic Movies
Title: Make Your Own Bed (1944)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Jane Wyman, Irene Manning

Description: Stupid wartime comedy. Near the end a bunch of Nazi spies hold an entire household captive, including Jane and Irene. Both girls are tightly roped up (Jane is bound to a chair with hands behind her back), and both are briefly cleave-gagged. The villains threaten Irene with a lit cigarette; Jane doesn't seem too perturbed by her predicament, and even scolds her boyfriend Jack Carson for trying to escape!
