THIS WEEK IN DOCTOR WHO June 28, 2008 - Vol 11, No 25 The weekly guide to Doctor Who boadcasts worldwide. by Benjamin F. Elliott http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho http://groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwood |
|
Section B - The US Public TV stations: |
|
It's a notable week for Doctor Who on public TV stations. |
|
KCPT 19 Kansas City, MO http://www.kcpt.org has their Doctor Who premiere tonight at 10PM CDT. They start with New Earth. |
|
  |
University of North Carolina http://www.unctv.org premieres Series 2 tonight at 11PM EDT. Episodes and Confidential Cut Down. |
Milwaukee Public Broadcasting http://www.wmvs.org premieres Series 2 tonight at 11PM CDT on 10 analog and 10.1 digital. Episodes and Confidential Cut Down. |
|
 |
Oregon Public Broadcasting http://www.opb.org begins a repeat run of Series 1 Monday at 11PM PDT. |
 |
The Oregon Channel http://www.oregonchannel.org , a public affairs channel for Oregon co-sponsored by Oregon Public Broadcasting and Southern Oregon Public TV http://www.soptv.org , is adding Doctor Who Series 1 late Mondays at 2AM PDT starting Monday. This looks like a time-shifted repeat of Oregon Public Broadcasting's broadcasts. Southern Oregon also bought Doctor Who, but has not scheduled a third cycle yet. Not sure how this affects Southern Oregon's future rights. For over the air viewers, the Oregon Channel is digital .4 on Oregon Public Broadcasting and digital .3 on Southern Oregon Public TV. For cable subscribers statewide, look on the digital cable section of the listings. This channel is not on Dish Network or DirecTV. |
 |
KTEH 54 San Jose, CA http://www.kteh.org has added a late Sunday 1AM repeat for Doctor Who Series 2. Episodes still air Thursdays at 7PM and Saturdays at 10PM. |
|
As of Monday the digital simulcast of KTEH's traditional schedule moves to KTEH subchannel 1 and KQET Monterey, CA subchannel 2. KTEH is also being added as subchannel 2 on KQED-DT in San Francisco, CA. If you have Cable or satellite, this probably will not affect you. But in areas that get KQED-DT over the air but not KTEH-DT, Doctor Who will be available to people with antennas and digital TV reception. |
 |
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI has moved their digital simulcast (including Who) to subchannel 1. |
 |
WXXI 21 http://www.wxxi.org will begin a 2nd run through Series 2 without finishing the first run. Tonight at 11PM - The Impossible Planet, pt 1 of 2. Next Saturday - back to New Earth, with the last 5 epsiodes of Series 2 not on the schedule. |
 |
MPT Maryland http://www.mpt.org airs The Parting of the Ways tonight at Midnight, one month after their last Who broadcast. Next week the season premiere of the Rochester International Jazz Festival takes the timeslot, which would seem to indicate that Doctor Who is off the schedule. If this is the case, it will be the first time in at least 23 years that Doctor Who has been off Maryland Public TV's schedule. In a day or two Who's status will probably be better known, but the column goes out now, on a cliffhanger for fans in Maryland, DC, Northern VA, West Virginia Panhandle, Southern Pennsylvania, and a fair bit of Delaware. |
 |
WJCT 7 Jacksonville, FL http://www.wjct.org will air 2 episodes of Series 1 Sundays at 11PM EDT starting 10 August. This will be the final run of Who on WJCT unless they have purchased Series 2 and kept quiet about it until now. |
Series 1 is currently available to public TV stations in a package until February 28, 2009. Series 2 is currently available to public TV stations in a package until March 31, 2010. At this time, stations do not have access to Series 3 and 4. |
|
|
5 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run (1963-1989). Iowa Public TV is currently airing both Series 2 and Peter Davison episodes. Maryland Public TV is airing Series 1 while resting classic Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA and WCET 48 Cincinnati, OH are airing Tom Baker episodes while resting Series 1. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes but apparently does not have New Who Series rights. |
|
Four stations have used all their rights to the Series 1 package - WLVT 39 Allentown, PA, WILL 12 Urbana, IL, Iowa Public TV, and Idaho Public TV. If they air Series 1 again, then they re-bought the package. OETA Oklahoma has used half of their 4th and final cycle of Series 1. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL did not renew Doctor Who. If any other stations have non-renewed, they have yet to tell us. |
|
Remember, for the Series 1 and 2 packages, stations have bought the rights to cycle through the episodes 4 times. They are not required to do so. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL is not expected to use their 4th run of Series 1. Other stations may make the same choice for Series 1 as February 28, 2009 comes close. Unless a station admits what they are doing, I'm stuck keeping it here with the most hopeful scenario (the number of times they still *could* air the episodes). |

Stations where we do not know if Christmas Invasion was bought will have a * by them (list may grow): WXXI 21 Rochester, NY WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY UNC North Carolina West Virginia Public Broadcasting WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI WTTW 11 Chicago, IL WILL 12 Urbana, IL WTVP 47 Peoria, IL WMVS 10 Milwaukee, WI Wisconsin Public TV Iowa Public TV (airs Classic Who) KCPT 19 Kansas City, MO* Ozark Public Broadcasting OETA Oklahoma KERA 13 Dallas, TX KLRU 18 Austin, TX KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT Idaho Public TV KTEH 54 San Jose, CA KVCR 24 San Bernadino, CA* Alaska One |

Series 1 - 2nd Cycle: Late Saturday Midnight EDT 1-13 The Parting of the Ways pt 2 of 2 Late Saturday 12:46AM EDT DWC 1-13 The Last Battle 5 July - off the schedule for the first time in at least 23 years! July - when we'll finally see if they are going to air Series 2, repeat Series 1, go back to classic Who, or do something drastic. After so many years with few to no pre-emptions, it's been sad to see Who off the air so much this year. Also has rights to Classic Who, which they are not currently airing. Classic Doctor Who expected back when New Series is rested. |
