 From PBS, I'm privy to do***entary and news programs, and being a 
Friend member, I allow this list into my house, often time ****fted to 
account for a busy retiree schedule...

Frontline
Nova
Nature
Great Performances
American Experience
Independent Lens
Sesame Street
Nightly Business Re****t
Newshour With Jim Lehrer
Most any other do***entary of special interest


 From the commercial networks, the list is a tad shorter, also time 
****fted for convenience and to eliminate all the incredibly inane 
commercials...

Local and national news
King of the Hill
Seinfeld


I also have a largish DVD library for movie nights which often satisfies 
the pure escapism requirements of small group of friendly visitors.
