TCM's Saturday morning lineup in December

It doesn't seem like all that long ago I noticed that TCM had gotten through running the Tarzan movies in the 10:00 AM Saturday slot and had movied on to Saint movies. I don't recall how many of those there are, but TCM has already run through them, as tomorrow morning after the 10:00 AM Popeye short there's the first of the Hildegard Withers movies, The Penguin Pool Murder. Edna May Oliver and James Gleason are a hoot as the snoopy teacher/detective and the police detective respectively. But I think there are only six movies in the series, so we'll be done before 31 Days of Oscar. How long until we get another year and a half of Bowery Boys movies?

Starting off the morning, in the 8:00 AM cartoon block, is the short Peace on Earth. This one, made just before the start of World War II, is a surprisingly dark one set in a world after mankind has destroyed itself through war, and anthropomorphic baby squirrels ask their grandfather what the phrase "good will to men" means in the "Peace on Earth, good will to men". It's also quite good and well worth a watch if you haven't seen it.
