6. Hasn't been for a long time, it's very expensive to broadcast.
But you can buy the entire series on DVD now.

9. My current favorites...
Edited on Fri Mar-03-06 11:39 PM by CBHagman
Masterpiece Theater. I just finished watching Bleak House. "Shake me up, Judy!"



Anything in the Britcom or British drama category. I tape EastEnders every week, even though we're years behind the U.K. and I can look everything up at the BBC.

And historical programs (the last one I watched was In Search of Ancient Ireland).

16. How about
Red Green

Antique Roadshow (I believe they run that on PBS in the NW)

Sesame Street (I have kids)


least favorite: Max & Ruby (PBS Kids) - I was watching with my daughter the other day and I got this wierd vibe off that show. Max wanted to play with Ruby's band, but did not have an instrument. Ruby came up with a solution though; She said that all bands need someone to carry their stuff and told Max to put the cases they had left in the middle of the floor away. I guess it seems innocent enough, but its not like they were preparing for "the big show" - turns out none of them were all that good anyways. It just rubbed me wrong.
