If your PBS doesn't carry a show you want a phone call to the program director might help. One phone call may not change his mind but your one phone call may not be the first one and that might be all that's needed to push it over the top. When I talked to our local program director he spoke to me at length and he asked me questions about what I liked about certain shows and what I watched. I told him that only reason I ever watched PBS was for woodworking shows and than if he didn't keep them on the air I wouldn't have a reason to watch. He is probably smart enough to know that I'm not the only person in this conservative market who has no use for their usual politically liberal biased shows. There's only one PBS channel available in this area so he doesn't have any competition but he still has to try to appeal to a broad market.

For some reason, that website isn't found.. Oops.. I got it.. it's http://www.woodworkingchannel.com .. The g was missing.. I'd like to watch episodes 305&306 because I got a request from my wife to build her a 3 legged plant stand.. Those episodes are about a 3 legged table and I figure I might get hints about how I might go about attaching the legs..

I've looked on the TV listings for RW in the Detroit/Lansing area, but it seems they don't schedule the show..

I went to the ww channel and it looks good. The rw episodes are all new to me and I look forward to seeing them. BUT. I'm a TiVo kinda-guy. Is there any way to "record" these on the computer for viewing later.

Just a Note***some computers have a jack out put that you can send the picture to the TV, what you see on the TV can be put on a tape or cd quick and easy.
