A program guide for members of Prairie Public BroadcastingNovember 2013

NatureLove in

the Animal Kingdom

Animals dance, sing, fl irt, and

compete to fi nd and secure a mate. For many, the all-

important bonds they share as a couple are what enable the next generation to survive.

Can we call these bonds love? In this

delightful, provocative look at the love life of animals, watch the feminine wiles of a

young gorilla, the search for Mr. Right among a thousand fl amingos, the open “marriages”

of blue-footed boobies, the soap opera

arrangements of gibbons, and all the subtle, outrageous, romantic antics that

go into fi nding a partner.

Tune in Wednesday, November

6, at 7:00 p.m.

The Tony Award-winner shares interpretations of his favorite songs in Alfie Boe—Storyteller at the Royal Albert Hall.

Friday, November 29, 10:00 p.m. (CT)

American Masters traces the gone-too-soon guitar great’s remarkable journey from his hardscrabble beginnings in Seattle, through his stint as a U.S. Army paratrooper, unknown sideman to R&B stars such as

Little Richard, Joey Dee and the Isley Brothers, and his discovery and ultimate international stardom. Jimi Hendrix features new interviews with Hendrix family members, band mates, Paul McCartney and others. New! Tuesday, November 5, 8:00 p.m. (CT)

Is it possible to engineer an absolutely safe world for ourselves? In NOVA’s Making Stuff Safer, host David Pogue explores the extent to which science and technology can

Mr. Harry Gordon Selfridge coined the phrase “the customer is always right,” and his life was depicted in the Masterpiece series Mr. Selfridge. Now, Secrets of Selfridges documents the real, flamboyant Mr. Selfridge, who revolutionized the way Londoners shopped and made shopping less of a practical pursuit and more of a luxurious adventure. New! Sunday, November 3, 8:00 p.m. (CT)

Eye On The Sixties is an intimate portrait of photographer Rowland Scherman, who captured the transformational events and figures of the 1960s, including Barbara Walters (pictured), the March on Washington, the Newport Folk Festival, Woodstock, the first Beatles concert in the United States, the burial of the Apollo I astronauts at Arlington National Cemetery, and the 1968 presidential campaign of Robert F. Kennedy. New! Tuesday, November 26, 8:00 p.m. (CT)

In 1863, Abraham Lincoln proved himself a master of a new frontier—not on the battlefields of the Civil War, but in his high-tech command center: the War Department

Telegraph Office, America’s first Situation Room. The Internet of the 19th century, the telegraph, gave Lincoln new powers to reshape leadership and wield personal control across distant battlefields. Lincoln@Gettysburg examines this dawn of the information age. New! Tuesday, November 19, 8:00 p.m. (CT)

To mark the 50th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy’s death, JFK: American Experience provides a fresh look at an enigmatic man who remains one of America’s most beloved and mourned leaders. The documentary offers a new perspective on his complicated private life, including his relationship with his wife, his close connec-tion to his younger brother, Robert, and his complex bond with his powerful father. It also reevalu-ates Kennedy’s strengths and weaknesses in the Oval Office as he navigated some of the

most explosive events of the mid-20th century—the disastrous failure at the Bay of Pigs, the urgent demands of an increasingly impatient civil rights movement, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the escalating conflict in Southeast Asia. JFK: American Experience airs in two parts, November 11 and 12, at

8:00 p.m. (CT). Then, tune in Wednesday, November

13, at 8:00 p.m. (CT) to investigate the dark
