You don't have PBS?

There is a lot of good, wholesome programming on PBS. They have programs on art and history and music. There are travel programs. Masterpiece Theater. They recently had a multi-part series on our National Parks that was excellent.

My wife and I enjoy Downton Abbey, Call the Midwife, Doc Martin, Father Brown, Mr. Selfridge and The Paradise all on PBS.

I second that recommendation. PBS is a goldmine of TV fare.
