Upcoming Wheeler & Woolsey Movies

It’s been a while, but TCM has finally added some Wheeler & Woolsey films to their upcoming schedule.  First up is Hips, Hips, Hooray! (1934 – RKO)  starring our favorite duo, along with frequent co-star Dorothy Lee, Thelma Todd, Ruth Etting – and an extremely young Betty Grable in an extremely small part!  Showing Wednesday, July 29th at 8PM Eastern on Turner Classic Movies.

On October 14th, 2009 we have a Wheeler and Woolsey extravaganza!

  • 8:00 PM – The Cuckoos (1930)
  • 10:00 PM – Hook, Line & Sinker (1930)
  • 11:30 PM – Caught Plastered (1931)
  • 12:45 PM – Peach-O-Reno (1931)

We’ll be back with more about each of these movies soon.  In the meantime – Enjoy Hips, Hips, Hooray!

  1. Wheeler and Woolsey were two of the funniest comedians of the 1930s! On Again, Off Again (1937) is one of the best-written scripts I’ve ever seen! Thank you for promoting them and keeping their works alive!

  2. I can’t wait to watch the films! I’ve never seen a Wheeler and Woosley movie and have been waiting to! I just discovered yesterday that TCM is airing them tomorrow.

  3. Looking for information (title, author) on a song heard in the background of The Cuckoos that played on TCM on October 14th. It sounded like Marquita Marquita. Can you help?

  4. When can we buy the entire (all) Wheeler and Woosley movie set on DVD?

  5. I am trying to buy Rio Rita film, does anyone have any ideas please ? Many thanks

  6. I have it on DVD but it is Region 1 (USA). Some UK DVD players are able to play USA Region 1 DVD’s. If you want, e-mail me at wheelerwoolsey@aol.com.
