TV WORTH WATCHING: BEST BETS WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, 2013


... FORBIDDEN PLANET

TCM, 11:30 p.m. ET


This landmark 1956 science fiction movie is best known, perhaps, for introducing the iconic Robby the Robot, and perhaps for spinning the plot of William Shakespeare’s The Tempest into a futuristic adventure film. But in addition to all that, I like it for two other reliable pleasures: watching Leslie Nielsen play it straight as the romantic lead, and watching Anne Francis as… well, I could just stop the sentence after “watching Anne Francis.”
