I wouldn’t read too much into the lack of a TCM Imports page on the TCM web site. As far as I know, TCM has never had a regularly updated web page for TCM Imports, and in general is very limited on what they provide on TCM.com. Along side the Wine Club, Classic Cruise, and Film Festival ads, it is difficult to find consistent programming content there. TCM has been showing TCM Imports in one form or another for over 20 years, and they seem to have a partnership with the Criterion Channel for acquiring international titles (among other sources), so I don’t see it going away anytime soon. I agree Re the website as parts of it seem to be neglected and, as we've chatted about before, the schedule is difficult to use. The schedule would seem to be something TCM would care about, but alas.
I hope you're right about the imports (I agree, they seem partnered with Criterion) as I like having TCM "choose" for me as it makes it easy that way. Otherwise, I'd have to put some real effort into identifying and, then, finding ones to watch. Imported films are one of my favorite things about TCM. Last year, TCM made a real effort to show Japanese films, which I thought were outstanding.

I hope you're both correct about Imports. I would be very disappointed if the dedicated time slot were to be discontinued.
