Television shows don't grow on trees you know. Not airing commercials during your programming means you have to get a shit load of money elsewhere.


Remember people, without PBS, there would never have been a Cosmos or Nova.
You forget one of the best miniseries on the subject to date. Evolution

I donate to PBS everytime I pay taxes thank you.
You donate around .03 Cents every year if you work the Budget out and figure out how much they are funded and simply divide by the folks in the US, I'f I did throughly unless you make over 100k a year you would be paying somthing on the order of .0003 cents per year
