getTV celebrates Judy Holliday and Jack Lemmon with a special block of comedies from 1954 on June 16. The night begins with the Oscar®-winning duo in the George Cukor comedy IT SHOULD HAPPEN TO YOU, starring Holliday as a desperate model who shoots to fame overnight, and Lemmon--in his big screen debut--as the lowly filmmaker who loves her; and Lemmon and Holliday rethink their divorce when old feelings start to resurface in the quirky romantic comedy PHFFFT!, with Kim Novak.

Then, getTV presents a pair of 1963 favorites on June 23, starring Charlton Heston as a domineering landowner in DIAMOND HEAD with George Chakiris, featuring a score by legendary composer John Williams; and beloved funnyman Danny Kaye gets mixed up in a mobster's scheme in THE MAN FROM THE DINER'S CLUB, co-written by THE EXORCIST scribe William Peter Blatty. And Oscar®-winning songstress Barbra Streisand headlines an evening of films from 1970 on June 30, starring in the odd couple comedy THE OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT with George Segal; followed by Terrence Stamp as a comatose man-child who awakens at the age of 30 in the sci-fi oddity THE MIND OF MR. SOAMES, with Robert Vaughn and Nigel Davenport.
