PBS Primetime Programming for the Week of November 11

Part of: PBS in Primetime

In a few short weeks I'm going to no longer be in my twenties.  It's scary, but it's true.  I liked my twenties.  They were a good decade and provided me with much amusement.  Oh, sure, there were hard times and upset, but I persevered.  I fought through them and managed to succeed in Imagineer Quest 2007.  What more could one ask of a decade than that?

Sunday, November 11:

8:00 - 9:00PM

Nature - “The Cheetah Orphans.”   After two cheetahs are orphaned a documentary filmmaker just happens to adopt them.  He plans on returning them to the wild, but he will he or will he grow too attached?  Either way, he'll be able to make a film about it and pocket some change. 

9:00 - 10:00PM

Masterpiece Theatre - “The Amazing Mrs. Pritchard – Episode 4.  I must tell you, I'm quite excited for this.  This show is all about Ros Pritchard (Jane Horrocks), some how or other this fine woman ends up running for Parliament and ends up winning.  What's more though is that her party ends up with a majority, and she becomes Prime Minister.  Oh yes, it's true (in a fictionalized sense).

10:00 - 11:00PM

Art in the Twenty-First Century - “Ecology.  Did you know that Ursula von Rydingsvard works primarily with cedar to create large-scale structures?  Well, she does.  Other people do other things that deal with art and ecology.  This show explores Ursula von Rydingsvard and some of those others. 

Monday, November 12:

8:00 - 9:00PM

Antiques Roadshow - “Milwaukee (Hour Three).” Wow, Milwaukee.  This brand-spanking new episode has the show going to the land of beer.  I imagine that's what people bring in too, old beer that no one really wants to drink.  I promise you people, in at least one of these three episodes beer will come up.  Wanna bet? 

9:00 – 10:30PM

Billy Crystal:  the Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize.  I like that Billy Crystal guy.  He seems funny and nice.  Not all New Yorkers are nice, but that Billy seems quite nice.  Maybe that's why they're giving him an award.  You know what that means, I'll be next because I'm the other nice New Yorker.

10:30 – 11:00PM

Georgia Aquarium:  Keepers of the Deep.  Technically, this aquarium, which opened in 2005 is the largest in the world.  Sadly for them, unlike the aquarium I went to a couple of weeks ago, Star Trek IV didn't film there.  Thus, it will never be any better than number two in my heart.
