You're forgetting that for many years, millions of women used to drool over Rock Hudson. But guess what? Sepiatone I wasn't questioning if some women drooled over Perkins (or Hudson): Of course, that was the case. I was questioning why you only mentioned women since many men also here drawn to both of these very handsome men. I was originally responding to a female forum member(I assume) who claimed Perkins was "beautiful". And too, I recall my ex wife once remarking on her disappointment to learn Perkins was gay as she also had a crush on him when she was younger. Sepiatone

I always enjoy an Errol Flynn day! He deserves to be thought of as a better actor than he's given credit for. Too bad CAPTAIN BLOOD is missing from today's line-up.

Anthony Perkins was so beautiful. Playing mysterious roles made him more intriguing and beautiful. I (with the possible exception of Tab Hunter) can't be the only one who thinks this.
I'm probably being influenced by his role in "Psycho", but I've always thought there was something off putting about Perkins. His eyes have a spacey look about them, as if he doesn't have both oars in the water. If he's the lead in movie, I usually skip it.

I'll chime in and say I love Summer Under The Stars. I look forward to it each year, and while I don't particularly like some of the honorees TCM lists, I appreciate the array of talented male and female co-stars you find in these films. As for the debate about whether or not Stella Stevens belongs in this year's lineup, I don't have a problem with it. She was a versatile actress, and, as noted, passed away earlier this year. While that may or may not be reason for her inclusion in the 2023 edition of SUTS, maybe she was a big fan of TCM. If you look at the station's year-end 'TCM Remembers' tribute, they always end it with who's considered to be the most prominent person that died in that particular year. Karl Malden in 2009 and Ernest Borgnine in 2012 might seem like odd choices to end in those particular years, but both men were enthusiastic supporters of TCM and were grateful to have a station that showcased movies that they and their contemporaries made that entertained movie-goers for generations.

Which stars would you have left off this year's list?From a purely self-centered perspective and disregarding any fairness or equality of the number of times actors have been included in SUTS or have their films shown on TCM in general, I could do without Anthony Perkins, Jackie Cooper, Debbie Reynolds, the Nicholas Brothers, Bob Hope, Ernest Borgnine, Doris Day, and Vincent Price. Love, love, love Robert Ryan, Barbara Stanwyck, Ronald Colman, Carole Lombard, Humphrey Bogart, Greer Garson, and to a lesser extent, Ann Sheridan, Deborah Kerr, Alan Ladd, and possibly Loretta Young depending on the movies they choose. I'm very happy to see Rhonda Fleming on the list. The rest are just okay.

Every year there are days I don't watch during SUTS because I'm not fond of some actors, but it is during SUTS that some films I don't see often are aired. This year I feel a little cheated for Woody Strode. SPARTACUS will air-geez, he gets killed early in the flick.

There was one year when they had Sophia Loren as a SUTS honoree. They included QUO VADIS which is a lengthy film, because as an MGM production it's in the Turner Library. But Sophia was only an extra in the film, or had like one or two lines...it was a negligible speaking part at best. They easily could have used that time to include a few of her rarely seen European films that viewers would have enjoyed more.

If there's someone I might not particularly care for, it doesn't mean there aren't others out there who enjoy watching that person's films. If there's a day where I can't watch a SUTS honoree, I've got Watch TCM to fall back on. The only thing that's frustrating is since I subscribe to YouTube TV, some films aren't available for viewing from some internet streaming services. For instance, "Valley of the Sun" on Lucille Ball's day was not shown to me this year, and I remember seeing it a couple of times when I had a cable TV subscription. I do like the wide range of men and women showcased during SUTS. I think Ralph Meeker, James Craig, and Alan Hale have enough in their filmographies to have a day of their own. Same goes for Patricia Morison, Marsha Hunt, and Evelyn Keyes.

On the old TCM board, I once listed my top twenty actresses and I think I had her at number 19. She's vastly underrated. She excelled in noir...JOHNNY O'CLOCK; MR. SOFT TOUCH; THE KILLER THAT STALKED NEW YORK; THE PROWLER and 99 RIVER STREET are notable highlights in Miss Keyes' filmography.
