Oklahoma has lost a public television legend.
We have learned that OETA Movie Club host B.J. Wexler passed away yesterday at the age of 83.
For those who are either not from here, too young to remember, or were fortunate enough to grow up in a household that had basic cable, B.J. Wexler hosted the OETA Movie Club – a Friday night program that would air old classic films, and in more modern times, movies that embarrassed bashful Oklahoma legislators – for 30-years from its launch in 1988 until he stepped away in 2018.
