rowing up in the Carter County town of Grayson, Lora Suttles loved nothing more than to hang out with her brother John and watch their favorite KET programs, which included The Electric Company, Mister Rogers Neighborhood and British dramas and comedies. One memory she recalls vividly: She was 11 or 12 years old, and KET was airing a pledge drive. She saw the phone banks on TV, lined with volunteers taking calls. An address flashed on the screen, showing where donations could be sent. “For some reason it moved me,” Suttles said. “And I worried that if I didn’t give a donation, KET would go off the air.” So she grabbed an envelope, addressed it to KET, and placed a single dollar bill inside. The next day, her mom took her to the post office and helped her mail the letter.


“I was a shy child, so I didn’t Her father quit school after the include a note or anything — just the eighth grade to work in the tobacco dollar,” Suttles laughed. “I can only fields.

This year, PBS celebrates five decades of service to the American people. It’s an opportunity, just like KET’s own 50th anniversary was, to reflect on the enduring legacy and bright future of public television. What a difference PBS has made!

These programs are made possible by viewers like you.

KET Sunday, March 29 • 9/8 pm KET2 Wednesday, April 1 • 9/8 pm

series premiere Celebrity chef Vivian

Country music superstar Garth Brooks is honored as the 2020 recipient of the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. Since his break out in 1989, Brooks has become the most successful solo artist in U.S. history — trailing only the Beatles in total album sales. Brooks helped usher in a country boom in the early 1990s that elevated an entire genre and created a slew of new stars who continue to top the country charts.

Howard returns with this six-part series. Vivian travels the South in search of the dishes that connect us all — dumplings, hand pies, porridge and more — but which are expressed in delightfully different ways across cultures. She samples pepperoni rolls in West Virginia, dives into grits and rice middlins in South Carolina, and discovers how food is often the first step toward meaningful conversations.
