Being the Saturday daytime host on TCM was only ever a side gig for Tiffany Vazquez, and, sadly, the gig eventually cast her aside. There's no gentler way to put that. She joined the classic-film cable channel in 2016, but her contract wasn't renewed.

She was a good sport about it, announcing the end of her tenure on Twitter in January 2018, closing with, "This experience has changed my life and I'm forever thankful for it."

FBI, on CBS

I understand your reluctance to even suggest a link. Tonally, the two movies couldn't be further apart. In fact, it seems like the similarities are just chance, with a bit of help from storytelling stereotypes.
