Yeah, same. They are really getting the most out of that one “yellow face” documentary. They are probably obligated to air it a certain number of times.

Most favorites:

1920: cabinet of Dr caligari
1921: phantom carriage
1922: Nosferatu
1923: Safety Last

Least favorites:

1920: Mark of Zorro
1921: -
1922: The Phantom (ironically also by Murnau)
1923: The Smiling Madame Beudet
