NY TV debut 11/15/48 from 8:30 to 9:45 pm on WCBS' "Film Theatre of the Air.'' Nigh, whose directing career went back to 1914 including important films at Warners and MGM, directs rare PRC family film from 1943. Copyright expired 1971. 
11/15/53 at 11:15 pm on WCBS' "The Late Show.'' Due partly to Hollywood union contracts, there were many UK films on TV at this point. One of the higher-profile titles, 1947 Boulting Brothers political drama had been around since 1949.
NY TV debut 11/15/58 from 5 to 6:25 pm on WRCA's "Movie Four.'' A couple of days earlier, French producers unsuccessfully sought injunction to block Channel 4's owner, NBC, TV distributor Flamingo Telefilm Sales and theatrical distributor GFD from broadcasting Tati's 1953 comedy.
NY TV debut 11/15/58 from 11:15 to approximately 1:30 am on WCBS' "The Late Late Show.'' It would be years, perhaps decades, before starry 1943 Metro flag-waver written by future blacklistees Paul Jarrico and Richard Collins would be broadcast in color.
11/15/63 from 3 to 4:20 am on WCBS' "Late Late Show II.'' Priscilla Lane, suspended for refusing role, Frances Farmer & Bogart among mooted stars of 1940 B adapted from Cain story, ultimately cast with "sensation'' of ALL THIS AND HEAVEN, TOO and the future Mrs. William Holden.
11/15/68 from 8 to 10 am on WABC's "Movie of the Day.'' Tashlin's 1962 sex comedy premiered 1/2/66 on "The ABC Sunday Night Movie.'' Channel 7's network parent seemed to have more of a tolerance for racy films in prime time than NBC or CBS did at that point.
11/15/73 at 10 am on WPIX. No idea what Channel 11 called its morning movie. Barton's 1937 sports flick w/Buster billed simply as Larry. Probably premiered as part of WCBS' acquisition of 350 pre-1948 Paramount talkies, but can't find documentation of any broadcasts on Channel 2.
11/15/78 at 1 pm on WOR's "Movie 9.'' "Fooey'' is Howard Thompson's one-word review of Irving Pichel's Victorian-era melodrama. "As claptrap in nature as when Pola Negri played it back in 1923,'' wrote Bosley Crowther when it opened in 1948 at the Criterion in Times Square.
11/15/83 from 2 to 4:15 am on WNEW. Harry Alan Towers produced 1965 remake of AND THEN THERE WERE NONE, moved to a mountain retreat, "in association" with original film's producer Harry M. Popkin. US TV debut CBS, 1969. Towers re-did Agatha Christie's mystery again in 1974,1989.
11/15/88 at 3:30 am on "TNT Overnight.'' "When did they excavate this one?'' Howard Thompson marveled of 1931 Pathe distributed by RKO after the two companies merged. Horton plays a double role in pre-code comedy whose copyright expired way back in 1959.
11/15/93 at 4 am on A&E. NY TV premiere 4/15/50 on WCBS, part of a package including STAGECOACH and FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT in heavy rotation for decades. Copyright for Garnett's 1940 comedy expired in 1968, but TV's hunger for public-domain movies didn't arrive for another decade.
11/15/98 at 8 and 10 pm on TCM. Provocative pairing of two very different films, a drama and comedy separated by a quarter-century (1957 and 1932), fictionalizing real-life columnist Walter Winchell. Apparently tied in w/ biopic debuting later that month on corporate sibling HBO.
