QIAD can be found on the RFDTV. It is on Wednesday at two times, mid morning and early evening.. Her new book about Barns are being shown. My local PBS station has dropped F&P. They are probably hopefully pick up the show again when another season is produced. I have DirecTV. :cry:

I have cable....thanks for the info....I think part of my problem is I seem to always be at work these days...lol....but used to set my alarm for 7:30 am just to watch them, the first day I got up and they weren't on I was slightly irritated...considering I had worked till 1 am the night before...lol

It is worth the money to have a DVR. Just getting rid of commercials is worth the cost. 20 minutes of each hour is commercials.
Being able to record all your favorite programs then watch when you want is wonderful.

The show is still in production with Marianne Fons and her daughter Mary, they're showing the 1800 series now on most PBS channelsl (Saturday mornings). I understand some of the cable companies have dropped the show.
I miss Fons and Porter, not so crazy about Fons and daughter. Maybe its just me, but the projects just don't seem as interesting - I think I just miss Liz, understand she wanted to spend more time with grandkids.
