"I think that Jim Lerher is the last honest newsman in America …The day Mr. Lerher hangs up his hat should be a day of national mourning in this country. Further, regarding the weekly discussion with Shields and Brooks, if you could only listen to one newscast a week that is the one I would listen to, it gets no better." Jeff via e-mail
"Bring back [MASTERPIECE] "Sherlock" It is absolutely brilliant and we are anxiously awaiting another episode." Linda via e-mail "I'm writing about NOVA SCIENCE NOW. What a great educational and instructional program! I've especially enjoyed the last 4 programs. They are so well done, and Mr. DeGrasse Tyson is a terrific host, genial and humorous and so smart. I've been watching Nova for a long time and just want to thank you for this tremendous program. I talk about it for a few days afterwards and encourage my friends to watch online or TV. Much thanks and praise for all who put this program together." Trish, via e-mail
"I really liked the NOVA science series with Dr. Tyson. He is one of my "science hero's". Articulate, smart, & sometimes humorous. I'm disappointed that this last series only lasted for a few weeks. Wednesday was "NOVA Nite" for me." Bill via e-mail "Dear sir or madam, I'm writing to congratulate you on a wonderful series. The science coming out of series is good. I really enjoyed it. I love science and most of my life have turned to PBS stations in Boston Ma. for programming. The CHARLIE ROSE BRIAN SERIES is another topnotch program. keep it up." Luke via-e-mail
"KICKSTART was an excellent program. It seems to have aired only once, but is so important - finally a show that is real and honest about improving health and diet. Most media productions and news articles resign people to relying on medicine to manage their health problems. But Kickstart's Dr. Barnard explains ways to become healthier and avoid drugs and pain by eating the right foods." Robin via e-mail

"Your new children's show, THE CAT IN THE HAT KNOWS A LOT ABOUT THAT, is absolutely fantastic. Martin Short is the perfect Cat. The writing, the content, the visuals - just wonderful. My 3 children have always enjoyed PBS programming, but my 2 year old simply loves your interpretation of the Cat in the Hat. To be truthful, we love it too. Thank you!" Laura, via e-mail
"Just wanted to let someone know how much my almost-5-year-old and I LOVE THIS SHOW! He loves it for the entertainment. I love it for the educational value and hearing how it makes him laugh. His favorite expression now? "WILD KRATTS CREATURE POWER!" Please keep these episodes coming. We appreciate them so much!" JoEllen, via e-mail
"I just wanted to let you know how much my son & the family love the new cartoon WILD KRATTS! It teaches him so much! The excitement I see on him when it comes on is great! I hope to see toys & DVDs to be made soon!" Marcie via e-mail

"I just wanted to thank you for posting the article "Understanding and Raising Girls." I have two girls, the oldest is in 1st grade and is beginning to encounter the complexities of friendships. This article was so helpful, so timely, since my husband and I have been talking about how to handle these situations constantly over the last week. THANKS THANKS THANKS!" Dawn via e-mail
"Hi! I just searched your site for a specific show (THE GIFTS OF IMPERFECTION). The TV schedules interface is fantastic—it's easy to use and understand and gives me a ton of options and thorough information but in such a well-designed way it's not overwhelming. I found what I needed in a few seconds. As a web professional, I know how hard it is to design a UI as well as you have. Congratulations, and thank you!!" Kristin via e-mail
