SATURDAY: Bob Newhart Double Feature: Before he became a TV legend in 1972 with The Bob Newhart Show (and later, Newhart), rising 1960s’ stand-up comedian Bob Newhart dabbled in movies, and TCM revives two of his more memorable early appearances as a tribute to the performer, who passed away last July at 94. First up: the 1968 caper Hot Millions (8/7c), with Newhart as a neurotic executive who’s suspicious of fraudster Peter Ustinov; followed by Mike Nichols’ 1970 adaptation of Joseph Heller’s Catch-22 (10/9c), with Newhart as the hapless Major Major. (You can stream The Bob Newhart Show anytime on Prime Video.)
