14. LONG LIVE PBS!

Sinclair ruined commercial TV in my area buying 8 stations saying the same things.
I can't take the ad breaks every 12 - 15 minutes.
All Americans should discover the wonders of PBS.
It's not your parents PBS. It is a very modern broadcasting.
The programming on PBS is so far above anything on commercial TV.
There is also 'Create', travel, art, and cooking channel, 3 in one!
When I retired I started watching a few shows; Antiques Roadshow and Doc Martin.
But then I started watching more shows like Nova and Nature and soon found it harder to go back to commercial TV.
Now I'm at the point if nothing is on PBS, I turn the TV off or maybe watch a DvD.
