Bill Hader Hosts TCM Essentials JR

Billl Hader is hosting Essentials JR on TCM this summer, beginning Sunday, June 3. I love that they have this special 8pm ET time slot every Sunday set aside to indoctrinate share these movies with kids. Another great list this year kicks off with 12 Angry Men June 3rd and ends with, one of my favorites, Ball of Fire August 26th.

In a phone interview I did with Mr. Hader he informed me that he really wanted to have Shane on the schedule this summer. Unfortunately it was not possible, so I'm sure he would be very grateful if you would take the time to screen that for the kid in your life too.

Here's the promo for the series. See the complete schedule below.
