MARCH 2016

Spring IntoMarch With PBS39

We spring into March with plenty of enthusiasm.

This month, we feature a variety of new and

encore programs to keep you entertained,

educated and inspired.

Perennial PBS39 favorites include Season 4 of

Mr. Selfridge, Grantchester, and the new Miss

Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, which begin all-new

seasons on Wednesday, March 30th. Surely,

these premieres will help soften the heartache

brought on by the conclusion of the beloved

Downton Abbey series, which airs its series

finale Wednesday, March 9th on PBS39.

We also have plenty of exciting, new special

programs throughout March. Music lives on

PBS39 with Yanni Live at the Great Pyramids,

March 5th at 8:00pm; Art of the Love Song with

the Annie Moses Band, March 7th at 8:00pm;

and Celtic Thunder Legacy, March 10th at

7:00pm. We will also have the pleasure of

hosting Annie from the Annie Moses Band,

Ryan Kelly and Neil Byrne of Celtic Thunder in

our studios at the PPL Public Media Center at

PBS39. You can find more information on

wlvt.org.

PBS39 programming will enrich your life in other

ways throughout March, with special programs

on health, finance, nutrition, and more. Those

shows, plus travel and exploration programs like

NOVA, Antiques Roadshow, Rick Steves’ Europe,

Globe Trekker and This Old House, will have you

feeling well-rounded all month long.

As spring begins, we believe that everything

happening at PBS39 will help to make your days

even brighter.
