Yellowstone in Four Seasons
Airs 7pm & 9pm Monday, March 13
Also 3/15 11:30am; 3/17 1:30am, 5am
Every year, millions of people visit Yellowstone National Park. Most come in summer, to watch herds of bison, experience the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and watch Old Faithfull erupt. Fall brings a change of color to the park. Temperatures begin to drop, along with the number of visitors to the park. Winter’s first snows may come as early as September and last into July. During this very long season, temperatures often dip and stay well below zero. Everything in Yellowstone looks different in winter. Spring is a time of rebirth and reawakening. The ice and snow begin to melt. Mother nature breathes new life into a landscape that was once dormant. Regardless of season in Yellowstone, one thing is for certain. There is plenty to marvel at, absorb, and take in. Mother Nature has worked millions of years to sculpt this grand treasure, and her finest work is on display for us all to appreciate and enjoy. Yellowstone’s splendor lies in its solitude, it’s grandness, it’s complexity and it’s simplicity. And for thousands of years this real life drama has performed the same four-act play over and over again.

To Walk Invisible: The Brontë Sisters Airs 8pm Sunday, March 26 Also 3/28 1am, 4:30am
Ever since they were revealed to the world as quaint country-women and not the notorious Bell brothers of their pseudonyms, the Brontë sisters have fascinated legions of devoted readers. Masterpiece brings these remarkable literary geniuses to life with a beautifully filmed and acted 90-minute drama drama. Depicting the evolution of secluded, dutiful clergyman’s daughters into authors of the most controversial fiction of the 1840s, the drama stars Finn Atkins as Charlotte, who shocked society with her edgy epic, Jane Eyre; Chloe Pirrie as Emily, author of the darkly gothic and disturbing Wuthering Heights; and Charlie Murphy as Anne, whose true-to-life love story The Tenant of Wildfell Hall was deemed “coarse and disgusting” by Victorian critics. Also starring are Jonathan Pryce as their distracted father, Reverend Patrick Brontë; and Adam Nagaitis as the sisters’ only brother, Branwell, whose wild and dissipated life contributed to vivid characters in each of their novels. To Walk Invisible was filmed in and around Haworth, the picturesque Yorkshire village where the Brontë sisters lived and which is now a mecca for Brontëphiles from all over the world. Scenes at their parsonage home were shot in an exact replica that recreates the feel of a lived-in mid-19th-century provincial dwelling, with the sisters congregating around the dining table to pen their stories and plot their editorial strategy. Based largely on Charlotte’s voluminous letters, the film follows the Brontë sisters in the eventful three-year period that saw them rise from ordinary, unmarried women, taking care of the household and their widowed father, to the secret authors of the world’s most sensational literature.

Violin Alone The unlikely pairing of two modern visionaries, Vilmos Olah, a Hungarian violin virtuoso, and Eric Funk, contemporary classical composer from the heart of Montana, has resulted in a new piece of music that pushes the boundaries of music and our notion of the possible. Vili: Concerto for Violin Alone is an extreme concerto in which its player must simultaneously play the solo and orchestra parts.

Hamilton’s America shows just how timeless the hot-button issues of today’s America are: immigration, States’ rights, debt, income inequality, and race relations. These were the same fights that defined Hamilton’s time, and they are the driving force of Miranda’s historic work. The film endeavors to brush the dust off American history, much as the musical does, and provide a unique new way for us to view our national heritage and current political landscape. Viewers will witness Miranda at the White House in 2009 performing an early version of what would become “Alexander Hamilton,” the first number in the musical and they will also be given an inside view of Miranda as he composes songs in Aaron Burr’s Manhattan bedroom. They will travel to Virginia with Christopher Jackson—who was Tony®-nominated for his portrayal of George Washington in the musical—as he reveals his personal struggle preparing for the role, while grappling with our Founders’ legacy of slavery. Back in New York, Miranda, who originated the Tony®-nominated role of Hamilton in the musical and Leslie Odom, Jr.—who won a Tony Award® for his portrayal of Aaron Burr—visit the Museum of American Finance to get a deeper understanding of the historical figures they are depicting on stage, including a memorable moment from this research trip, when the two actors brandish authentic 19th-century dueling pistols.

Performing in front of a live audience at RTE Studios in Dublin, Ireland, O’Donnell takes the stage with his longtime singing partner Mary Duff, and special guest Derek Ryan, the popular Irish singer. Accompanied by the Daniel O’Donnell Band, the three perform a collection of traditional Irish tunes, inspirational ballads, timeless standards and new songs that are sure to become favorites. This special features many of O’Donnell’s signature songs, including “Stand Beside Me” and “Never Ending Song of Love.” O’Donnell’s special guest is young Irish singer Derek Ryan. Ryan’s most recent album, “One Good Night,” topped the Irish charts. His latest concert tour sold out in venues across Ireland, and he was awarded with “Entertainer of the Year” and “Album of the Year” in 2015 by The Sunday World, Ireland’s largest newspaper. Not only a superstar on the Emerald Isle, Ryan also has a huge fan base in the UK, where he tours frequently. In 2016, Ryan and the band played venues across Australia for their first hugely successful international tour.

Documentary tells the story of Dick Proenneke who, in the late 1960s, built his own cabin in the wilderness at the base of the Aleutian Peninsula, in what is now Lake Clark National Park. Using color footage he shot himself, Proenneke traces how he came to this remote area, selected a homestead site and built his log cabin completely by himself. The documentary covers his first year in-country, showing his day-to-day activities and the passing of the seasons as he sought to scratch out a living alone in the wilderness.

Roy Orbison in the 30th anniversary in a newly edited version of the iconic concert.
Roy Orbison: Black & White Night 30 Airs 7pm Thursday, March 16 and 9:30pm Saturday, March 4
Also 3/6 1am; 3/18 12:30am It’s hard to believe 30 years have passed since Roy Orbison’s televised comeback Black & White Night concert was filmed. Recorded live in September 1987 at the Cocoanut Grove in Los Angeles, the concert featured the great Roy Orbison and an all-star line-up of special guests for a never-to-be-repeated evening of rock and roll, filmed entirely in black and white. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the legendary event, this newly edited and remastered version gives the iconic concert a fresh look and sound, bringing new life and excitement to the performances. When David Lynch’s landmark film Blue Velvet was released in 1986, it featured Roy Orbison’s “In Dreams” prominently on the soundtrack. Although Orbison had been out of the limelight for some time, the film helped spark new interest in Orbison’s music. On September 30, 1987, Orbison, then 51, staged a remarkable comeback concert with the help of guest musicians whom he had influenced: Jackson Browne, T Bone Burnett, Elvis Costello, k.d. lang, Bonnie Raitt, J.D. Souther, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits and Jennifer Warnes. The all-star concert at the Ambassador Hotel’s Cocoanut Grove nightclub was turned into a television special and broadcast as “Roy Orbison and Friends: A Black and White Night” the following January, less than a year before the icon’s untimely passing.

Pictured: Butte miners, 1930s.

America’s Test Kitchen From Cook’s Illustrated XVII Airs on MontanaPBS Create 6:30pm and 10pm Thursdays and 12:30am Fridays America’s Test Kitchen From Cook’s Illustrated launches season 17 with new hosts Bridget Lancaster and Julia Collin Davison. Bridget and Julia have been fixtures on the show from the very beginning, sharing their cooking skills and deep knowledge of food with viewers over the hundreds of recipes they’ve prepared on air as test cooks. The skilled duo lead a team of test cooks as they deconstruct recipes and reveal the test kitchen’s secrets to foolproof cooking at home. This season, newcomers Elle Simone, Keith Dresser, and Tim Chin join veteran test cooks Dan Souza and Becky Hays, and Cook’s Country’s Erin McMurrer to master such dishes as grilled pizza, baked Alaska, chicken and sausage gumbo and more. The series also features the popular segments viewers know and love. In “The Tasting Lab,” returning expert Jack Bishop challenges Bridget and Julia to taste-test supermarket staples before revealing the series’ top food recommendations. Then, equipment tester Adam Ried takes the hosts through an exhaustive and unbiased search for the best kitchen items in “Equipment Corner.” Meanwhile, in “Gadgets Galore,” Lisa McManus reviews her favorite gadgets and reveals which ones are worth the cost—or not.

Ed Sullivan’s Rock and Roll Classics: The ’60s
Airs 7pm Thursday, March 9
Also 3/10 11:30pm
From the late 1940s until the early 1970s, the greatest music acts in the world were seen by millions of viewers of all ages each Sunday night on The Ed Sullivan Show. Now, the My Music series presents a special of classic song performances spanning the years 1963-1968 in Ed Sullivan’s Rock And Roll Classics: The 60s. From the Beatles’ American television debut in 1964 to the Doors’ infamous one-time-only appearance, The Ed Sullivan Show served up an unparalleled roster of timeless artists. Ed Sullivan’s Rock And Roll Classics focuses exclusively on full-length music performances—no plate spinners or dancing elephants—that evoke the spirit of that decade’s youth movement, including its connection to San Francisco and the summer of love and peace.
