Spring has just about sprung. I can get a Quantum of Solace from that. It's so close to being spring and spring is so close to being summer that I'm excited. Very excited. We're close to changing the clocks and I'm working on the golf swing once more. There's so much happening, the birds are chirping, the bees buzzing, life continues. It's wonderful.

Nature - “Deep Jungle 'New Frontiers'”. Wow. This is part one of a three-part miniseries - a miniseries, I tell you - that follows explorers and scientists as they examine life in the jungle. Part one deals with "how the rainforest acts as an engine of evolution."
9:00 – 11:00PM
André Rieu: In Wonderland. I would call this the sequel to Alice's visit, but that was the whole Looking Glass thing. Maybe it's now a trilogy. Fine, fine, it's not Rieu and his orchestra, choir, several soloists and some really kicking music playing at a theme park in Holland.

Antiques Roadshow – "Tampa (Hour One)". I wonder if the things that appear at the Roadshow in Tampa are imported by snowbirds from New York. Either that or they recall the moments back in the day when the Buccaneers were a good team.

The Osmonds 50th Anniversary. It's been 50 years since The Osmonds started to do their thing? It's been 50 years since The Osmonds started to do their thing! Holy mackerel, that's a long, long time. All seven Osmonds perform here and there are old clips and photos, too.
10:00 – 10:30PM
PBS Previews – "Carrier". PBS isn't going to show you "Carrier", they're just going to show you a preview of it (it airs at the end of April and beginning of May). They're going to tantalize you. They're going to intrigue you. They're going to tell you about some of the people on the USS Nimitz.

Nova – “The Great Robot Race”. In 2005 DARPA sponsored a challenge that saw 195 teams from around the globe try and qualify for 132 mile race around across the desert. It was all done with robots. And, in case you were unsure, robots are in fact awesome.
9:00 – 10:30PM
The Happiness Prescription with Deepak Chopra. Deepak Chopra explains how we can all be happy. He takes Buddha's teachings and relates "them to a contemporary understanding of consciousness." Apparently that can all make us happy. I'll stick with drugs myself.
