Have those of you who watch the local PBS stations noticed that they have been running the same programs over and over again ad nauseum? Have you noticed that pledge week has become pledge months?

Also, have you noticed that the pledge programs are being run over and over again ad nauseum? Have you heard over and over that the pledge money goes to buy programming? OK, where is that new programming?
