Not so soon, considering that Sigma Six Pinch Penny GE owns Universal, which in turn owns most of Paramount's film library. Billy Wilder's Ace in the Hole was on TCM in January 2007, and that picture is another Paramount movie missing in action for about 14 years, when it last was on AMC. Chances are, Murder, He Says will be on TCM before it makes it to DVD. The tape I made of Murder, He Says on June 9, 1993 from AMC was one of the last times this movie was broadcast (EP tape quality does not hold up well). August 30 is Fred MacMurray's birthday, so if TCM now has the broadcast rights, it could be part of a birthday salute to MacMurray, part of another Summer Under The Stars schedule, with a different star highlighted each day of the month.
