TCM Schedule for Tuesday, March 25th (PSYCH 101)

[CBHagman]

What a day TCM has for us today: prostitution, home invasion, and, for dessert, cannibalism.

And look out, anybody who has flabby hands or an irritating laugh! The lord high executioner's on the loose on TCM, he's got an ax, and he's not afraid to use it! Well, then again, maybe he is.

Enjoy.
