Moviecollector's elusive Old Schedules project
Movies only - Historical Premieres
(>44 min, no shorts, no TV series episodes or serials)
Last updated 3/20/2023
This is not a yearly-cumulative "unique" list that gets reset each year (as my other quantitative reports are). This is just a count of movies as they premiered on TCM, across all broadcast years. That is, TCM's first occurrence of each feature-length film (45 min or greater), and the year that it was aired. So hypothetically speaking, if TCM aired Fletch for the first time in 2002, then it would only get counted once here in 2002, then never again and never before.
The first few TCM broadcast years are the largest because they burned through most of their premieres during those years.
As the years go on, I must mention that only movies from before 2018 are analyzed on this page. This is a limitation on my end (but primarily due to IMDB), having gone into this thinking it was going to continue being a 'classic' movie station.
Tentatively scheduled films are counted here, but will eventually roll off if not aired.
