The Owner of this Content Has Restricted It’s Streaming Availability

On 5/23/2022 @12:35pm central time I was watching Three Cheers for The Girls on TCMHD. It’s an old B&W Warner Brothers movie from 1943. It’s a 16 minute short when half way through it the screen went blank and this message appeared:

“The Owner of this Content Has Restricted It’s Streaming Availability. “


Why would this happen? Was someone asleep at the controls and woke up? Why was it even scheduled?

Hard to say. But some content is indeed restricted from being streamed on DirecTV Stream and other streaming services. But since you were able to view the beginning, it's likely that someone goofed up. Either it wasn't supposed to be streamed at all, or something happened to cut off the stream. You might check to see if it's airing again and set up a recording to see what happens.

...and TCM is known for restricting viewing via streaming services. You are not the first, and many others have experienced the warning message.
