Fred Vigeant, Director of Programming for WITF TV and WITF 89.5 & 93.3

The fall season is in full swing this month. I have some exciting surprises for you Saturdays this month. We welcome a new britcom to the schedule for a

limited time. Miranda is the critically acclaimed and multi-award-winning sitcom written by Miranda Hart. While Miranda isn’t exactly new (these episodes are about 10 years old), it is new to broadcast audiences here in the states. You may recognize Miranda from earlier seasons of Call The Midwife. This character is quite different from the midwife nurse in the drama series. Instead, Miranda is desperate to fit in, but her public-school background makes her a misfit down the pub, and she has never quite fitted in with childhood rival Tilly, or the rest of the girls. We’ll enjoy the hilarity Miranda will bring between now and the end of the year.

Saturday also include a new season of the hit drama 800 Words at 9:30pm. We pick up where we left off with the second half of season 2. Shay finds herself embroiled in an art scam, while Arlo struggles with his own romantic inter-ests. And when George’s charismatic but troubled brother Terry rolls into town, he threatens the happiness that George and his family have worked for in Weld.

But wait, there is even more to Saturday with the triumphant return of Father Brown. We return to the sleepy Cotswold village of Kembleford in the 1950s. In the beautiful rural countryside Father Brown investigates crime in his own particular way, using intuition and psychology.

PBS Newshour will present three election debates this month. The candi-dates for Vice President will debate October 7 in Salt Lake City. The two presidential candidates meet on October

and Elmo sing classic Sesame Street songs alongside the world-renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis.

WITF’s TV programming is now avail-able as a livestream online. With your internet connection, you can access our live schedule at witf.org/watch or through the PBS Video app on your Roku. The PBS Video app for smartphones, AppleTV and Amazon Fire will be updated later this year to accommodate the live stream. This feature comes at no additional cost to you.

Thanks for watching WITF and for taking the time to read these updates. I hope you stay safe and stay tuned!

15 and 22. All three debates begin at 9pm. We travel around the world on the

Age of Nature to explore humanity’s relationship with nature and wildlife. Scientists and conservationists examine ways we can restore our planet. The three-part documentary series asks whether newfound awareness of nature could bring about a new chapter in the human story. Age of Nature begins October 14 at 10pm capping off new episodes of Nature and NOVA throughout the month.

The celebration of 50 years of Sesame Street continues with A Swingin’ Sesame Street Celebration. Sesame Street comes to Jazz at Lincoln Center for a swinging celebration of the show’s 50th anniversary. See some of your favorite feathered and furry friends like Big Bird
