(2,181 posts)I've been a subscriber for many years, but just recently have done more searching through their lesser known programs. I've started watching shows that are about the environment and today's world. What I love is that a lot of their new programs are positive and encouraging, not just doom and gloom. (we have enough of that already!) Things like Shared Planet--how humans can share the planet with other species, Wilding--about a British couple that are returning their 400yr old estate to a natural state to be able to keep it running, and Human Footprint. That has biologist Shane Campbell-Staton, a most delightful host, who travels the world examining the impacts that our species has on the world, and things individuals are doing to improve the impacts.
Always the classics like Masterpiece, Mystery and other UK offerings. But yes, someone mentioned the Walter programs! Some great things there if you can do sub-titles or speak a foreign language.
